LaFosse & Alexander's Origami Flowers Kit Reviews

There are some simple models but also more challenging, intermediate to lower end of advanced models, included in the book as well so it can attract large populations of origami enthusiasts. I very much enjoyed LaFosse & Alexander's Origami Flowers kit so far and look forward to fold more from it. --Yuki's Origami Blog
The boxed kit, published by Tuttle includes 180 folding papers, a full-color instructional booklet and DVD. You get 2 sizes of folding paper, 7 and 15 cm squares in purple, yellow, red, green, orange and pink solids. I love when everything is included! [...] I found the instructions very clear but if you get stuck just use the instructional DVD, it's very well done, you can go from project to project. --Handmade By Deb blog
