Make Your Own Paper Petal Press (Reading My Tea Leaves)

This flower press is based on a simple accordion notebook tutorial, where folded paper makes a double sided pull out sketchbook. For this project I swapped out common paper for water-resistant and translucent kitchen paper, and folded up edges into pockets to accommodate petals and leaves. Not only is the kitchen paper very thin and durable, but it also comes in long rolls that can easily be torn and folded to make the booklet.
