That is crazy neat looking! I'd be worried about somehow cutting myself on it though.

Your instructable is great a lot of detail that other people skip and we all need.

I love this! however, i found a way to get rid of the spikey flaps on the back, you can cut away the corner of the flap furthest from the centre, then tuck the flap under the petal it just came out of!

I think I'm going to solder a long thick wire to the bottom of mine and make it look more flower like :D

Love this neat use for "trash". Looks like something that a fair trade store would sell. I will definitely using this at parties :)
