California Poppy flowers are so brightly colored and full of energy. They gladden hearts large and small. Today, we are bringing a little of their joy into our living spaces by making bouquets. For a bouquet that will lasts through the seasons, we will be using tissue paper and embroidery floss. To begin the craft, turn to pages 29-31 for the materials list and instructions. We would love to see your creations of a tissue paper or floral variety on our flickr page and/or blog.
