Craft set "flowering paper from waste paper", 11 pcs.

This set contains everything you need to make paper yourself and then let it blossom!

Age-appropriate illustrated instructions guide you step-by-step through the entire process. First you use waste paper and the enclosed papermaker frame and pressing tool to make your own paper. The squares of paper produced are now scattered with flower seeds and dried. You can use the finished paper to make pretty greetings cards, tags or little gifts. If the paper is then planted and watered regularly, you can grow gorgeous cornflowers and zinnias.

You can achieve particularly lovely effects by adding dried flower petals, pine needles or confetti. The paper can be dyed slightly using fruit or herbal teas. Watercolours can be used to conjure up fabulous patterns on the paper. There really are no limits to the creative options!

The leftover homemade paper can be used to create fun "flowering confetti". So you really do make use of everything.
