Seed paper poppy kits, $12 each, plus HST and shipping.

Each kit includes instructions for two ways to make the poppies: a simpler Free Form design and a more detailed Petalled design.

  • The Free Form method is especially well suited to younger participants, including grades K to 6, and may also be a good option for groups that prefer a simpler, more accessible activity.
  • The Petalled method offers a more detailed design and is well suited to older students, adults and groups looking for a more intricate activity.

Each kit makes about 16 sheets of seed paper, or roughly 40 poppies.
