*UPDATE* Due to technical difficulties, we were unable to live stream this workshop and decided to film a live tutorial instead. The video is now up on YouTube and posted below!
With so much uncertainty going on in the world currently, we have been looking forward to coming together to create something beautiful. For our March Member Make, we are showing you how to make a crepe paper Easter lily plant. Easter lilies are a symbol of hope, and we cannot think of a more fitting flower to make at the moment.
While our Member Make workshops are typically private and available for members only, we feel it’s important to provide everyone with more opportunities for social connection right now. So this month we are giving everyone free access to our live workshop and flower pattern!
Spread a lily love
Along with being a symbol of hope, there’s something so peaceful about this crepe paper Easter lily. We hope it will serve as a positive reminder for you over these next few weeks and continue to lift your spirits long after!

Hi Vanetia,
In the drop down menu under Paper Flowers we have an entire section with all of our bouquets.
Crafting with you keeps me sane these days! I love, love to make the beautiful flowers you have designed. I have even given some of them away, hopefully bringing some sunshine to someone else as well!
So glad you are enjoying our flowers Stacey! 🙂
