Tickled Pink - A Carnation Tutorial

I am always amused by the derivation of the work pink.  Originally it meant to cut a zig-zag edge, and goes right back to the 1500s. There's a similar German word pinken.

I am very fond of my pinking shears - and when Nadia asked to borrow them for her craft last week, she was surprised when I asked "For paper or fabric?" - they are impossible to sharpen, so when I inherited my Mum's I immediately designated their specific use.

The colour pink is believed to have got its name from the dianthus flowers, aka pinks- which have pinked edges
I needed my [paper] pinking shears this week to make some carnations [red ones]

• These are really quick to put together, and look surprisingly effective. 
• One 33cm 2-ply napkin makes 2 blooms.
• You don't have to bind the stalks with stem tape - especially if you are putting them into an arrangement, but it does give a neater finish. 
• Green garden wire will work, at a pinch, or a pipecleaner
• And if you haven't got pinking shears, you can still make the flowers with 'clean cut' edges. But they won't be 'proper' pinks
• for larger blooms, you can use the same method, but firmer paper like tissue or crepe will work better.
