The paper flower chrysanthemum is handcrafted from crepe paper. The flower is designed in collaboration with the paper artist Kristina Sørensen from Labdecor and is a part of the third collection of crepe paper flowers from Studio About. This version is also found in a nude colour.

DECORATE YOUR HOME WITH PAPER FLOWERS

Having a paper flower, you can use it as a single but also gather it with more, combining them into a bouquet. You can use your paper flowers the same way you would use regular flowers, however, paper flowers will last (essentially) forever and will never need to be watered. If you choose to combine your paper flower with natural flowers, make sure to protect the paper flowers from water.

You can also use flowers of crepe paper for personal styling or use it as a gift for your darlings.

GET CREATIVE WITH THE FLOWERS

Besides the paper flowers' decorative qualities, they are also versatile and long-lasting. We have collected some potential inspiration for you who would like to use paper flowers creatively - either in your interior, on the table, or as an accessory. Do you have the itch for renewal, you can always reuse the flowers for new creative projects.

Here are some of our ideas:

1. Wrap the paper flower around your napkin and serve a plateful of flower happiness to your guests
2. Mix paper flowers with fresh flowers (but remember to protect the paper stalk from water)
3. Use the paper flowers as a colourful eye-catcher in a dried bouquet
4. Treat your friend to a stalk or two as a hostess gift
5. Decorate your gifts with a paper flower
6. Use the flowers individually or put them together for bouquets
7. Make a beautiful flower wreath for your hair with paper flowers

The paper flowers have a flexible stem and will fit in both small and large vases - bend the stem a few times and use it in a small Standing Bubble or leave it in all its glory in the tall cylinder vase Flower Tube.

RECEIVING YOUR PAPER FLOWER

When you receive the flower, you need to unfold the leaves yourself. You can choose whether the flower should be fully open or slightly more closed.

The crepe paper is also easily shaped and if you gently rub the thumb into a leaf, you can give the leaf a slight rounding. This way you can give your flowers a personal look and they will be livelier and truer to nature.

Follow these 3 steps to unfold it completely:

• Carefully grab the flower head down in the box and pull it out.
• Spread the petals of the flower.
• To create more fullness, you can gently pull your thumb in the centre of a petal, making them more curved.
