The Clare Florist Team have decided to try our hands at making flowers today! Yes, that's right making flowers - out of paper - So I thought I'd share our flower origami with you.
It certainly made our weekly meeting more interesting, everyone had a go and got really quite involved.
Our first attempts (especially mine) left a lot to be desired, with our flowers looking like; well waste paper to be honest!
Being the determined Clare Florist Team that we are, perseverance was the key and after a while our origami flower experts turned out to be Claire and Dave who ended up competing to make the best origami lily.
With the paper folding in full swing, we soon had an origami
Lily Arrangement. The first paper flower bouquet that I have seen.
We'd love to see your attempts at origami flower making - it is harder than it looks. To get instructions on how to make the origami lily flowers go to:

Origami-fun also has a great selection of other flowers and different designs that you can make too, so why not give it a try?

We'd love to see your origami flower folding efforts - so when you have made yours, why not take a photo and post it on our facebook wall, post us a twitpic on twitter or post it to our blog? You could even upload a video of you making your origami flowers to our Clare Florist YouTube channel.
