Lia Griffith Frosted Paper Flowers Garden Roses & Buds, 8.5" x 11", Assorted Colors 16 Pages

Lia Griffith Products are Amazing!!!! I am so happy that I came across my original find of Lia Griffith Crepe paper Flower Kits, leading me to her many high quality good value products and absolutely stunning Flowers! I have absolutely fallen in love with flower making!!! My first flower was made from the Anome Crepe Flower Kit. After making one single flower I instantly ordered several more of her Crepe Flower kits. Almost all right away! Loving the quality, value, easy how to instructions written/pictured/video tutorial. You can take your preference! She makes it so easy to do and follow along. I recommend the video especially your first time. I eventually stumbled upon this Lia Griffith Frosted Paper Flower Kit! Yey!! There’s more!! 😁🌹 these are also made with a different kind of paper. How exciting! A frosted paper that has a perfect shimmer to it! I feel like these specific flowers are less realistic than all her other kits(if your looking for something Frosted or Crepe paper and more realistic she has a wide variety of choices and reasonable prices on Amazon and her website Liagriffith.com, as well as tools and supplies needed. I also bought her Frosted paper Camellia flowers 😉 they are so beautiful and only eight dollars!) I thought this kit was adorable. These flowers have the most gorgeous color pairing. I can’t help but want to look at the radiant shimmer of the beautifully paired colors! Each page flat and feeling smooth with the perfect amount of thickness to work up a wonderful flower with! It FEELS like Quality! Absolutely gorgeous! These are also Pre-Cut which also differs from the Crepe Paper Kits where you hand cut everything out yourself. The precuts are a great break from the scissors. Each petal or leaf punching out smoothly for a perfect cut. It’s almost therapeutic for me getting to punch out each page! Lia also has amazing straight forward directions and a clear list of supplies needed for your project. Along with a excellent video tutorial! These flowers along with the Camellia Flowers have short supplies list and shouldn’t be expensive depending on what you might already have such as a Hot Glue Gun. They are packaged extremely well arriving perfectly flat crisp and new pages. As with all Lia products They both were in perfect condition upon arrival But these are just paper made booklets and still perfect condition!! Good job guys! No bends or folds. Just perfect! Fast arrival as well. I highly recommend that you splurge and get her Lia Griffith Curling Tool if you are going to be a flower maker! It’s well worth the $5-$6 price found on amazon and also the Lia Griffith website. Of course if you enjoy this project or I have peaked your interest I’m going to nudge you on over to her amazing site and check out every kit she offers! Along with high quality tools and supplies with decent to good prices. If you become a member, along with many other perks, you can have access to thousands of flower patterns. Each unique and radiantly beautiful!! They will take your breath away! I’m obsessed 🙃 truly exciting to find another forever hobby 😊I can’t wait for my 18 gauge floral wire to arrive so I can get to making these wonderful new-to-me colorful fun flowers!! Go on give it a try!! 😉💐😊😁🌺

Lia Griffith's paper flower kits are really fun but I did run into a couple of problems making my flowers. In order to make the 6 flowers and 6 buds that it states on the package, you have to HALF the petals & buds. The directions do not tell you that. Maybe it's a given and I did get that. So one of my flowers in a lot fuller than the others, which is okay because it's very beautiful but, it left me with only 5 flowers instead of 6. I had a difficult time making the buds but found that I came up short of petals for my buds....so I only have 4 buds instead of 6. All in all, I loved making the flowers. It was my first time making paper flowers & I enjoyed & am purchasing more of her kits. The flowers are amazing when their finished !!

Lia Griffith, in my opinion, is the most talented paper flower artist in our country to date. She is an amazing woman who is always willing to give support and instruction to those who want to learn. You can't go wrong in purchasing any of her products. Get to know her and join her community of beautiful paper enthusiasts! This kit is so much fun and extremely easy. You will become obsessed with paper once you purchase one of Lia's kits!

My friend and I just finished up a fantastic craft day doing the Peony kits. We spent about 7.5 hours total working with a long break in the middle for errands. We had a fantastic time. We put on some acoustic coffee house covers and it was great girl time. And you feel so fantastic because these flowers are BEAUTIFUL. The paper has a great frosty sheen that reflects light. They’re just so pretty.Please note that this kit only contains the pre-punched paper. You need the rest of the supplies. You’ll need wire of different sizes (we used 14 gauge and 22 gauge), floral tape, wire cutters, needle nosed pliers, hot glue gun and glue sticks, something soft like foam or a blanket, something round to roll with, something to curl). For the majority of the supplies, I bought a great floral kit that had almost everything.In her videos, she uses a foam square to roll on and a “dowel” to roll the paper. In one of her other videos, she mentions that the “dowel” is actually one of those little wooden dolls you paint. I used a fid from my stained glass supplies since I already had it. We found that a thin fleece blanket folded over a few times worked great in place of the foam she uses.There is certainly a learning curve while you do this and your first flower will take forever. However, once you get the hang of what you’re doing, it goes quickly and easily. Great for some light music and girl time. It literally took us 7.5 hours (we each did a kit) but we thoroughly enjoyed the whole thing. We took pictures with flowers in our hair. Posed them by my sleeping cat. You get a lot faster with experience. In the first three hours we each did 3 large flowers. After lunch, it took us 4.5 hours to do the other three large flowers, 6 buds and all the leaves. And you just feel like such an excellent crafter because they are just so beautiful. You will be proud.We each have another kit to do. But we decided this would be a fun craft to have another craft day with our mothers. So we’re gonna order the succulents kits and do that in 2 weeks! Considering this whole idea spawned from me wanting to take a $60 course on making flowers, we saved so much money! And we will have 4 vases of flowers when we’re done!I thought I might get into paper flower crafting, but after using these precut flowers, there’s no way I’d cut all this by hand. We actually discussed going halfsies on a cutting machine. It has not been ruled out.Some tips:**Go to her website to get a better view of the kits, what other supplies you need, and to watch the tutorial video for the kit you are considering.**A folded blanket or a firm pillow can be used in place of the foam block.**We used credit cards to curl the paper. She sells a tool for it or recommends scissors. We tried scissors and both preferred the credit card.**Floral tape needs to be stretched to be sticky. It will also make your hands sticky. Those leaves are very fragile so I recommend getting them all glued before getting your fingers sticky with the tape. We tore a lot of leaves.**When punching out the paper, do a few pages at once. You’ll be less likely to tear them that way. Plus: speed.**Start with your least favorite color. Every flower you do looks better than the last as you really figure out what you’re doing and how tight you like the flower.**Do things in chunks/stages. At least per flower if not all of them at once. Get everything punched out. Then get everything rolled to shape. Then glue all the ends. Then you are ready to assemble your flower.**Each flower has 5 of each petal for each layer (in the Peony, that is). There are two flowers and two buds of each color. Keep track in tidy piles for each flower.**Alternate the petals! It took us each two flowers before it occurred to us to flip some of the petals over (before rolling). This way you have mirror images rather than 5 of the exact same petal. It really ads more dimension to the flowers.**The kit says high temp glue gun but we used low temp with no trouble. It’s what we had.I loved these kits. I’ve already got another with plans to buy two more. I 100% recommend.EDIT: I had originally rated this 5 stars because the Peony kit is 100% a five star project. However, I am now putting together the camellias. The camellia book is missing one of the punches so I had to hand cut those pieces. Amazon is replacing it for free. I think it’s just a manufacturing defect, so if that was corrected, as I’m sure it will be, these would be 5 star too.

My teen daughter enjoyed this craft project. She put it in a vase in her room and it looks cute. It did require separately purchasing floral wire and green floral tape.

Easy to use. Highly recommend the Lia Griffith paper scoring/curling tool because it is way easy than scissors. Some of the more intricate leaves were really delicate to tear out of the perforations. I am really happy with how my wreath turned out and I have leaves leftover for another project. I used a foam wreath form. If I did this craft again, I would wrap it with floral tape or ribbon first. But I just made sure to really cover it with leaves. A hot glue gun is ideal.
