Making Osmanthus Kinmokusei Flowers🌿Experiments and Mistakes with 0.5mm Paper Strips✂️Relaxing Art

Hi friends!

Thank you for joining me for another video. Today, I am making Osmanthus fragrans flowers using 0.5mm wide paper strips. As I am still getting accustomed to working with these thin strips, I thought I'd share some of the mistakes and challenges I encounter while shaping the petals.

This variety of Osmanthus fragrans with orange blossoms is native to Japan, known locally as kinmokusei. Part of the Oleaceae family, it's also called Sweet Osmanthus or Fragrant Olive.

The unique scent of these blooms make them very popular in the perfume industry. Osmanthus flowers are also versatile in the kitchen, whether infused with green or black tea leaves, or used to create jams, dumplings, soups, and cakes.
