HI Lia when I was a student my mother showed me how to make crepe flowers. We used to make wreaths for funerals flowers were expensive here in Cyprus. Unfortunately I haven't any fotos.After some years flowers became cheaper and we stoped making them. You are very talented.your film reminded me those days!!! Thank you. Excelent job! Greetings from Cyprus.
When my grandma was younger (now she passed away) she used to make a lot of paper flowers for house decorating. This remind me her, I personally have done little but I loved.
Gosh!! I'm not alone with my crepe paper hobby... so glad I found you
Lia your flowers are so beautiful! Thank you so much for explaining the difference in crepe paper.
Prettiest flowers ..so thankful for sharing those ideas🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸
BEAUTIFUL WORK...BEAUTIFULLY PRESENTED LIA!
I love this! Great information for anyone who wants to get started with crepe paper flowers!
What a fantastic and informative video! Crepe paper dresses, who knew! How nice to see that a German company are market leaders in this field. I want to try to make these flowers soon, looking forward! Lots of love from south Germany
My grandmother in the late 50s had a friend who taught us kids how to make crepe paper flowers. It was very cool. I am inspired by your video to take this hobby up again.
Oh wow! So happy to hear.
Thank you for the history and education Lia!!! Wonderful presentation!
Thank you :)
Loved this video, especially the history and weights of crepe paper! I just got a Lia Griffith set of the extra fine crepe and made my first poppy already. Thanks for the great info and tutorials
That is awesome! I'm so happy to hear☺️
oh my gosh the roses are beautiful im ordering all this
I just started making coffee filter flowers and they turned out great. I’m just discovering crepe flowers. I think it’s pretty amazing that you have now influenced the actual crepe paper industry just through making paper flowers. 🌸 🌺
Thank you for the nice comment!
You're my best english teacher! And the best inspiration! Thank you so much!
Thank you! 😃
Great video Lia!
I just found your channel. Have your book too. Didn't make the connection until you held up the book. Anyway, happy to have found you. Looking forward to making crepe flowers again. My grandmother showed me in the late 1960s. I hope mine are half as lovely as hers were.
Perfect for my upcoming wedding. :)
Amazing! Thank you for all information. I have used all kind of crepe paper including Italian and Chinese brand, but I found the 160 gr of Grifttin is the best quality I need .
This is great. I have just started doing this, (I have made a dozen black parrot tulips so far, and have been very pleased with them) and now I'm hooked. So learning all about the paper has answered lots of questions. I last made crepe paper roses about 60 years ago. It's taken me a while to get back, but here I am at last!
So happy you are here! I absolutely LOVE making crepe paper flowers and sharing how to make them. If you haven't yet, please visit our site liagriffith.com! We have so many paper flower tutorials ❤️
Wonderful work you do, and your hands and fingers are gifted .Stay blessed dear ❤

perfect flowers ~
When I first made crepe paper flowers as a teenager, I actually used very old confetti streamers. The faded colors on some of the streamers worked to my advantage!
That is great! Very creative :)
I'm new. I just made about a thousand.wax melts and bath balms but thought this would be nice for Valentine's Day. Thank you I learned a lot.

Lia, do you ever use a fixative spray with your flowers? If so can you elaborate when and which one you use? Thanks!
Good question! No, we don't usually use fixative. But, some of our member like to use it over PanPastel or to preserve the look of their flowers with Matte UV resistant fixative.
What amazing products! And you are an excellent teacher. So glad I found your channel, and I look forward to learning more!
thank you
so beautiful,, thanks for videos
Glad you like it!
Hi
M even in the same paper flower business. People appreciate my work. But this knowledge will sure help me grow more polished
Thank a ton for sharing this video
It's my pleasure
FINALLY!!!! Thank you sooooooooooo very much! There are no places that carry papers in my area, so it’s impossible to feel and know the difference. (Other than the very cheapest crap)
Saw you on Jennifer Maker's Academy Weekend 2022. You were very interesting. Glad I found you and subscribed to your RUclips site.
So happy to hear! ❤
Such a treat to watch you handling the crepe papers.i have been using the Italian one since now..... looking eagerly forward to buy your brand of crepe paper from Amazon for my next vacation crafts
Hermoso té felicito
Thanks.....This video is very helpful
Glad it was helpful!
Great work
Thanks
Boy, I am so addicted to your flowers. My question is wondering if you have a list somewhere that tells you when to use fine crepe paper or heavy crepe paper with each individual flower. Thanks you so much.
Hi Susan! We have made a lot of our flowers in all of the different crepe papers. We have a glossary in the footer of the site that lists all of these versions. Come check it out!
I am now looking for crepe paper flower tools and materials! Here in Austria everything is double the price compare to US but at least we have access to German papers
Wow! great work Lia. Love your craft ideas. Can I buy a book?
Yes you can! Here is a link - feltpaperscissors.com/product-category/gifts/❤️
En México hacemos infinidad de manualidades con el papel crepe, flores, figuras, disfraces etcétera; recuerdo que cuando estaba en kindergarten mi mamá me hizo un disfraz de payasita para un festival y todo hecho de papel crepé!
That is amazing! I would love to see the costume.
@@Liagriffithx I have a picture, I'm 45 so imagine how many years ago was taken!
Hi Lia.. I had bought the double sided crêpe paper and made beautiful flowers but I heard they fade with time. I want some tips on preventing them from fading. Please help.
Just bought your book! Did you say something about non toxic? Can that be something to look out for? Thanks Lia!
Great question! We are unsure on what is being used in other crepe paper outside of German and Italian. That is why we stick to what we know is non-toxic or what inks and dyes are being used. :)
Hello iam ur new subscriber .Very informative video .I was searching for this video .Thank U so much

I am making navy flowers for my daughters wedding boquetbut have just realised that she is having a bubble machine which will blow bubbles on them when they come out of the church. To my horror I have thought of the staining of the blue on her white dress. Is there any way to prevent htis?
I would love to learn about the courses.
