Here are some more coffee filter paper flowers. For more details about these and techniques used, see the previous post.
5 layers of filters:

6 layers of filters

Basically, the more layers you use for the simple,no-frills flowers, the fluffier the result. they all end up being about the same size space-wise. For what I'm going to use them for, really 5 layers (I need the play around with just 4 layers soon) is all I need. But if I was to use these for something fancier (say if this was for a wedding- like a bouquet, table centerpiece, or a heavily photoed backdrop then I'd opted for the fuller layers).

This flower I folded 4 layers together in half, then in half again, then half once more, and cut out 3 petals. I thread a wire (with the tip coiled) through the inner center, and stacked the filters on one-by-one as with all the previous flowers.



Two petals (or heart shaped petals), I folded 4 layers in half, then half again, and once more in half. Then I cut out a upper heart shape to create a double petal.
