Singed Flowers DIY

There are also a large selection of DIY posts all over the aethernet on how to do it, so you can take your pick. Singed flowers seems a common term for them.


I especially like the way the flower in this video turns out:

    The silky one looks very interesting.

    I've made these before! They are pretty fun, but I never was quite satisfied with mine . . . maybe I should try again.
