A Festival of Flowers

I was looking for something different to do while sitting in front of the TV and discoverd that I really like to make flowers. I've found that the Clover templates are really great, especially the medium round yo-yos and the small kanzashi templates. I also ran across something called the Hana Ami flower loom; this makes really cool looking flowers as well.

Here is a picture of my latest flower creations. There are kanzashi flowers (the ones with the petals), hana ami flowers (made out of yarn), yo-yo's, rolled fabric strip flowers, folded ribbon flowers, and twisted fabric strip flowers.

I've also started an Etsy shop: http://www.etsy.com/shop/Bananers2 There isn't much in there yet, but we all have to start somewhere!
