Question and showing off.
May. 14th, 2008 12:31 pmJust so this isn't completely a text post, I wanted to show off some paper crepe flowers I've made. Not that this is entirely due to my crafty-ness, because I had the help of Martha Stewart.
This is a pretty old craft apparently. My grandmother was telling me about how her and my great-grandmother made these for memorial day.
Anyways, I love them and they're all over my room. If anyone is interested I recommend getting started with a set at Michael's. Or on Martha Stewart's website. They're currently on clearance at my Michael's. These are yellow roses and assorted peonies.

But now my question. My little cousin has been enjoying making these
I've found a cheaper start set on misterart.com, but I'm not sure I need the kids book, I just want to make the things. Does anyone know what the paint is called? I've seen the bottles of the paint at Joann's but they're relocating, and they only had a few colors. I can't find the refill paints anywhere. Amazon advertises them but, they're 'unavailable'. Help! I think this would be fun! Anything you know about it could be helpful.
