The Origami Flowers Kit from Michael G. LaFosse teaches how to create 41 easy-to-fold types of origami flowers. The kit contains 2 full color, 32 page books with clear step-by-step instructions, easy to follow diagrams and 98 sheets of paper to get you going. Two of those sheets are gold metallic paper for that special wow factor. - Texas Kitchen blog
