I was on StumbleUpon ( a Firefox extension to search for stuff) and the first thing that popped up was this beautiful maple leaf rose photo diagram! which i thought i would share, i just wish i had saved some of the leaves from the Norway maple in my garden :) it would of made a great centre piece for christmas.

Here's the link through Google translate as it was in Russian (assuming that most people don't speak Russian)

Awesome! At first I was like, "that can't possibly be made from actual leaves"! But then I saw the photo diagrams... :shock:

Thanks for sharing this! :D

Wow who would've thought of folding leaves? Those look stunning! And really professional-any one can make them look perfect. Beautiful! :D

Very cool-looks simple, too, although to make them look great, it would take more finesse. I think I'll stick to Kawasaki roses, though :P
