The Paper Eucalyptus Story

A gathering of ideas and techniques, in a pdf. course with 207 pages, that reveals how to make authentic botanical greens.

In this course I plan to teach you everything I know about making eucalyptus leaves. I will walk you through this creative process, step by step, with over more than 1300 photos and text instructions that reveal how to achieve the eucalyptus delicate gray-green-blue colors, the small and fascinating seeds and how to work with different techniques and creative methods, in order to make the most common and often used eucalyptus, in centerpieces and bouquets: silver dollar and seeded eucalyptus, willow, true blue and baby blue eucalyptus.

This STORY is divided in 2 Chapters:
* Course 1 reveals everything about the eucalyptus color tones, laminating different paper weights, all the techniques you need to know for making eucalyptus leaves, painting styles, how to make the seeds or berries, templates, drawings and personal research.
* Course 2 reveals how I assemble each eucalyptus stems using my favorite techniques, papers and colors for each type.

After you will master all of these techniques, you can adapt them for other types of greens.
In order to make the eucalyptus stems presented on these materials you need to have some experience with paper flowers, but if you are a beginner, I’m sure you will be able to make some of the greens presented – you will learn a lot of useful information that will help you make a big progress in your work.

This Study is available to purchase on my etsy shop but you can also buy it directly from me (contact me).

 

Luisa and her magnolia bridal bouquet!

Luisa’s bridal bouquet was one of my all time favorite wedding projects. She had her wedding in Greece and we used that as a inspiration for the bridal bouquet and wedding candles. The main theme was magnolias and olive leaves… she was so beautiful and these amazing photos by DeersPhotography captured the moment perfectly!

…thoughts fom my lovely girls!

 It’s been ten years since I discovered paper flowers (late 2012) and it’s a love story that’s getting stronger every day!

My room is always full of flowers …amazing, colorful and sweet paper flowers that I’ve made for YOU, for your beautiful day, maybe your dream wedding bouquet, or to give as a gift to your loved ones.

Thank you for your thrust in me and in my talent …for this I am grateful!

Being a paper flower artist is at mix between being an artisan, an artist, a designer, or perhaps a bit of all of them combined.  Paper blooms combine colors, shape and craftsmanship is such an unique way, that gives me the amazing opportunity to replicate nature.

 

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to express my thoughts and ideas throw my art. I am immensely happy to be a part of your life through my flowers and my work …and when I have a positive feedback from all of you, my heart is pounding with joy and happiness.
