The Distant Drum rose is my absolute favourite rose to make when I want a flower that’s both classic and has a unique colouring. Although the colour of the rose changes in different climates, it’s known for its peachy-bronze-mauve colour. It’s a favourite rose for many florists. I loved teaching it in my in-person workshops. When I first embarked on making this flower in crepe paper, I approached it like any other flower I make. Little did I know that through the process of designing and constructing this rose, it would ultimately become one of my breakthrough flowers. While designing and creating this flower, I discovered techniques that elevated my paper floral artistry. I’ve been able to transfer many of the skills I learned from designing this flower to other types of roses and flowers. I hope you’ll join me on this journey as this might be the breakthrough flower for you too!
