My quest for making botanically correct flowers and plants in miniature, started with my book, Mostly Paper, which explains my discovered technique to make wallpaper look like fabric. It is intended to inspire beginners into the world of miniatures as well as give those with creating experience some new ideas. I was pressed into finding an inexpensive solution because I needed a miniature table to display some small accessories as a gift as a supplier of doll’s house miniatures to my customers, the shop owners. I soon realised that I needed a flower arrangement in the centre of the mini table. Because I studied botany as one of my sciences at university, I am keenly aware of detailed accuracy.
