These swathes of blooms are filling pots and vases in my home. They have the fragrance of freshly folded paper!
They are the latest version of my origami flowers!
Some of them are made from vintage South African Lantern Magazines [Donated to me by the delightful, now newly married Siblingmine! Thanks Casey!]

and some are made from colourful recycled modern mags too!
Thrifted knitting needles form the stem and stamen of each bloom!PS I have not done much Freshly Found stuff this week, as my mom's been admitted to hospital and is undergoing extensive tests. It's a relief to know that the doctors will be getting to the bottom of her not feeling well lately!

PS Sterkte with your mom's hospitalization. There is just no good English equivalent for the Afrikaans wish of "sterkte", I think.
Love the photos and colors. Best wishes for your mom :-)
