Dear Michelle, I must confess: I bookmarked your flickr photostream and I visit it almost dayly waiting for your "little miracles", like this one... A tip from a notorious paperfolder: try simple white sheets coloured by children - a magical combination!
You can return the visit sometime on http://www.flickr.com/photos/setalobabszinhaz/
To Jane: just type "Kusudama ball" or "Kusudama ball tutorial" into any search engine (Google, Yahoo, Ask, whatever...) and you will find more tutorials than you wished...
To Z: don't be afraid of the paper. It won't bite... Non-japanese adults think that origami (paper-folding) is complicated, so they will complicate it. If you have children, ask them to help!
Thanks for stopping by. I'm Michelle, and I live on the glorious north west coast of Tasmania, Australia. I am a photographer, designer, maker, knitter, and mama to six amazingly beautiful and talented children. Welcome to my space, a place where I share the things I am passionate about - my photographs, my crafts, my thoughts, my inspirations and my family.
Absolutely beautiful!!! I love Kusudama flowers but this is just something else!!!

Love the sentiments too.
My son told me the other day that he loves me because I make things for him :)

Michelle this is absolutely gorgesous! The fact that it's made from vintage sheet music just adds to the appeal!
