Blogger extraordinaire, Peaches, at the self-titled Aunt Peaches, describes her job as sitting in an office where people ‘give me stuff and say make it pretty.’ I was blown away by one of her projects where she can make roses out of coffee filter (oooh yeaaah you read correctly, coffee filter). They look better than some of the artificial roses I’ve seen out there. Here’s a quick overview of Aunt Peaches lovely bouquet . Coffee filter:
Choose and mix the colors:
Snip, glue and roll…
And once all that hardwork is done…
Just WOW! Right?????? I can’t stop goggling at those coffee filter roses! A wonderful permanent and homemade fixture to your home. Hurry over to Peaches’ blogsite to see the details on how to put those coffee filters to use! Thanks so much, Peaches for sharing your beautiful idea and talent with us!

I love this DIY. I have to agree with you that this looks better then the fake roses I’ve seen. They are made out of coffee filters too, that’s amazing.
Hey thanks for coming by my blog, Ada! I stopped by your blog earlier today to look at your saturday color story that you posted in the forums. Beautiful pics!
This rose DIY is so awesome! I can’t believe how incredible they look. I’m saving this because I really think I might try to make some!
Hi Michelle .. glad u find my Saturday Color Stories beautiful (yaaay – that warms my heart!). This DIY on roses is AMAZING! I have it on my to-do-list too!!
