Recently we posted a tutorial on how to make polymer clay flower embellishments for scrapbooking. Also, there were the crocheted flowers and also the yo-yo‘s… Now, we thought we’d show you some other flower embellishment ideas that would not be too difficult to make. Hope you are as inspired as I am in seeing these!

Please explain how the coffee filter flowers are an eco-project? She doesn’t use USED filters – she buys BRAND NEW ones.
I’ve always liked making handmade flowers using paper — now I can experiment with other materials! =)
To me, eco scrapbooking can also incorporate repurposing something that you already may have around the house.
Love those coffee filter flowers. I may just have to make some for myself!
