“Livia Cetti is a modern guru of flower arranging and paper flower design, and [The Exquisite Book of Paper Flowers] is a fabulous manual for trying your hand at homemade blooms.” —Mint Design Blog

The country’s premiere paper-flower artist, Livia Cetti is known for her high-style, gorgeous tissue and crepe-paper flowers—many of which are often mistaken for real flowers. The Exquisite Book of Paper Flowers is Cetti’s comprehensive how-to manual showcasing her until-now secret techniques for creating 27 popular blooms, including peonies, poppies, roses, and hibiscus.

Clear instructions and stunning step-by-step photographs by Addie Juell show crafters of all levels how to make individual flowers as well as how to combine blooms to form 20 exquisite garlands, centerpieces, wreaths, corsages, and boutonnieres.
