Friday Focus Flower - Flannel Flower 🌿

Soft, delicate and unmistakably Australian, this week's Friday Focus Flower is the beautiful Flannel Flower 🤍

Its name comes from the soft, felt-like texture of its petals and leaves. Despite its delicate appearance, it thrives in tough conditions and is often associated with resilience, strength and gentleness.

I love the contrast between the creamy-white petals and that gorgeous green centre. Each flower is individually handmade from paper, so no two are exactly alike. ✂️🌿

Friday Focus Flower – Pincushion Protea 🌿

This week’s feature flower is the striking Pincushion Protea. With its bold shape, beautiful texture and delicate pin-like stamens, it’s a flower that really stands out.

Native to South Africa, pincushion proteas come in a range of gorgeous colours, including yellow, orange, red and pink. They’re known for their unusual appearance and are often associated with strength, transformation and courage.

My paper version is carefully handmade to capture all of those intricate layers and fine details — and of course, it will last much longer than the real thing! 💐

Happy Friday 💛

Friday Focus Flower 💛 - Yellow Banksia

This week's Friday Focus Flower is the beautiful Yellow Banksia 🌿

With its soft golden colour, distinctive cylindrical flower spike and wonderfully textured appearance, the Banksia is one of Australia's most recognisable native flowers. It's often associated with resilience, rebirth, and enduring strength.

One of my favourite things about creating Australian natives in paper is trying to capture all the little details that make each flower so unique. 💐💛

Friday Focus Flower 🌿 - Kangaroo Paw

This week’s flower has definitely been one of my biggest challenges yet!

Kangaroo Paws are such unique Australian natives, with their unusual shape and distinctive velvety, almost furry appearance. Recreating that texture in paper has certainly been tricky!

While my paper version may not have quite mastered its furry coat, I’m really happy with how the shape, colours and tiny flower details have come together.

Like all my paper flowers, they continue to evolve with each recreation. Every time I make one, I learn a little more about its natural form and refine my technique along the way.

That’s all part of the challenge of recreating nature in paper — some flowers just make me work a little harder than others! 🌿❤️

Kangaroo Paws come in so many beautiful colours — which is your favourite?

Happy Friday 💐❤️

Friday Focus Flower 🌸 - Grevillea

With its distinctive curled petals and fine, delicate details, the Grevillea flower is the focus for this Friday.

Found in a beautiful range of colours, from reds, pinks and oranges to yellows, creams, whites, greens and browns, Grevilleas also appear in striking multi-coloured combinations. Their unique form adds wonderful texture and character to native arrangements. 💐

Grevilleas are often seen as symbols of strength, resilience and individuality — a fitting meaning for a flower that is both hardy and uniquely beautiful.

Our paper Grevilleas are individually handcrafted to capture their unusual shape and intricate details, creating a lasting version of this much-loved Australian bloom.

Friday Focus Flower 🌿– Gum Flowers

This week the focus is on the beautiful Gum Flower – one of Australia's most distinctive native blooms.

With its delicate, fluffy stamens and vibrant colours, the gum flower is a true celebration of the Australian landscape. They symbolise resilience, survival and deep connection to the land.

I love recreating these unique blooms by hand, carefully shaping every petal and stamen from paper to capture the intricate texture and character that makes gum flowers so special.

Happy Friday! 🤍❤️

Friday Focus Flower 🌿- Leucadendron

This weeks Friday Focus Flower is the beautiful Leucadendron.

One of the things I love most about them is their amazing variety of colours, from fresh greens and soft pinks to rich burgundy and deep reds. Their layered foliage and unusual flower heads add beautiful colour, texture and interest to any bouquet.

Each of my paper Leucadendrons is individually handmade, with every leaf shaped and layered by hand.
Best of all, these beauties will keep their colour for years to come. 🌿

Each of my paper Billy Buttons is carefully handmade, with layer upon layer of tiny details used to recreate their distinctive textured appearance. Unlike fresh flowers, these little bursts of sunshine will stay bright and beautiful for years to come. 🌿

Happy Friday! 💛

Friday Focus Flower 🌿 - King Protea

This week the focus is on the beautiful King Protea. With its large, striking bloom and layers of detailed petals, the King Protea makes a beautiful statement flower. I have created it in both soft creamy yellow and dusty pink, with each colour giving the flower a slightly different feel.

Often associated with strength, courage and transformation, the King Protea is a meaningful choice for bouquets, gifts and lasting floral arrangements. 💐
