My Paper Twine Daisy :))

                                                                                     

                                                                                   

I  found a website and tutorial to make paper flowers and crafts using 
Paper Twine :)))Only from  Ann Martins recent post i realized they are 
Paper  Twines rather than 
paper threads :))

.
I think the twine i have is not thick like the ones i saw in paper phine shop 
                                                                                       

so when i untwisted the twine /opened i couldn't get a wide piece .
but i was able to make tiny petals and leaves.
this petal was white ..i just dabbed it with ink to give a pale pink color .
                                                                         

for the flower center i held several pieces of twine together cut the edges

and dabbed it with brown ink .

sorry about this picture ..it was too dark .

excuse !sorry about the messy table :))

i cut exactly 1 inch twine and opened it gently then one edge was squeezed for base of petal 

and other  tapering  edges were  gently folded to achieve the petal shape.

i am thinking of making a dragon fly with white paper twine ..
