Origami, quilling, and other decorative papercrafts are combined in papercrafter Moad's collection, which features flowers in a variety of styles, including stylized pinwheels and spirals as well as realistic roses and orchids. Each flower is presented as a full project for a card, gift bag, or other decorative item, with a suggestion included for another suitable project. While some of the projects call for a die cutter or specialty punches, there's enough information for crafters to draft their own templates and DIY their paper shapes. VERDICT Papercrafters will gravitate toward this clever collection, with its hodgepodge of techniques providing the opportunity to try something new. Copyright 2017 Library Journal.
