Corn husk flowers email this discussion to a friend?

Are any of you familar with making flowers out of dyed corn husks? More than 20 years ago I helped a woman make flowers out of dyed corn husks.

I want to do it again only I don't remember what all was involved. I remember she had all these bins of colored husks. She dyed them herself.

She showed me how to cut the husks to make which ever flower we were making at the time. I would love to do it again only I can't find any information on the internet that sounds like what she did.

I know we used wire for the stem, and that green floral tape, and we would attach the corn husks and gradually build it into a flower.

I sure would appreciate any input you all might have.

Over look my typos

Go to HGTV.com and click on crafts. There is instructions on corn husk flowers.
