Customer Reviews

Beautiful Paper Flowers

I love this book. There are many wonderful, beautiful creations illustrated. They are all easy to make and include detailed instructions.

Beautiful work and lovely ideas!

I love vintage paper and if you do - you will love this book. Great ideas and fun projects to do yourself or with friends.

An Truly Enchanting Follow-up

I once read that "fantasy is imagination unrestricted by reality." Sandra Evertson has got that theory down. Her book, Fanciful Paper Flowers, is the perfect follow-up to the previous book, Fanciful Paper Projects. Each page is filled with some of the most creative projects I have ever seen. Into a crafter's world of what can frequently entail rather monotonous and uninspiring projects, Evertson breathes new life. Not unlike the projects in her previous books, the paper flower projects in this book really open the imagination and remind us of the true artistry of crafting. I highly recommend picking up a copy. You won't regret it!

Another Hit!

Sandra Evertson has done it again. This book is a great addition to Sandra Evertson's artistic vision. I have purchased all of her other books and they have opened up my eyes to the potential of papers of all kinds. I've also noticed the influence of her work on other artists. This new book is exceptional. She has risen to the challenge of what could be a very mundane subject and created an imaginative and inspiring book full of beautiful projects. Each project is rich with ideas and the instructions are very specific. You'll create pieces you never thought you could before. I look forward to seeing what she will bring us next.

So many ideas

This is the 4th book I have gotten by Sandra. Each is different and fun to look at besides use. This one I found ideas that I could do and some I could use at school. Always a plus when i can use a book for school. I found the ideas wonderful and great jumping off places for my own ideas. I have made 3 different ones and find the directions easy to follow and fun to do.
