Paper Flower Courses, Workshops & Fine Art | Pink and Posey by Quynh Nguyen

Hello and welcome! I'm Quynh D. Nguyen, the paper flower artist behind Pink and Posey, and I am so happy you are here. Based in Seattle, I have spent over a decade falling deeper in love with the art of turning simple sheets of crepe paper into something that genuinely takes your breath away. What started as a personal obsession has grown into an international community of makers who come together to learn, create, and find their people.

This little corner of the internet is for anyone who has ever been stopped in their tracks by a beautiful flower and thought, I want to make that. I wrote The New Art of Paper Flowers because I wanted everyone to experience that magic, no matter where they are on their creative journey. Whether you are picking up crepe paper for the first time or have been making flowers for years, you belong here.

Through online courses, in-person workshops across the country and around the world, and fine art commissions, I am here to guide you, cheer you on, and make the process feel as joyful as the finished bloom.

Come as you are. We will figure out the rest together."

Discover the Art of Creating Unique Paper Flowers

Making paper flowers is a beautiful journey shaped by your unique path. I believe in the power of individuality, which is why I encourage you to find your own way to make flowers. As someone who once pursued careers in the culinary world and logistics, my diverse background influences every aspect of my craft, from setting up my workstation to the deft use of scissors. My experience guides me.

Remember that everyone starts at the beginning, feeling a little clumsy and uncertain. But fear not! It's through practice, repetition, and the willingness to embrace new techniques that we truly grow. So take your time, savor the process, and enjoy each step along the way. Even after nearly a decade of making paper flowers, I am still discovering new methods to perfect my peonies and their delicate leaves.

I'm grateful you've stopped by, and I'm excited to share my techniques and paper-flower methods with you. I understand that the journey is made easier with guidance from a teacher. That's why I offer a wealth of resources, including workshops, tutorials, supply and book recommendations, and more, to help you dive into the world of paper flowers.

Rave Reviews From Students & Clients

“Quynh has been one of the absolute best teachers! The classes she offers are engaging, and the preplanning she puts into each class ensures you will be ready with the right tools and materials needed to flourish and grow! I am walking away from this class with the most gorgeous bouquet, a stronger love for paper flowers, new skills, and new friends.”

Faith Schau

“I met Quynh in 2018, for a private crepe paper flower class. Quynh is a very thoughtful and meticulous teacher. She gave me tips and tricks and helped me understand different variables. I've also learned from Quynh thru written and video tutorials. She is easy to understand in person; thru video and via her printed instructions. I learn something new, with each tutorial Quynh gives.”

NANCY BALL

“When starting my paper flower journey I had no idea where to begin. Thankfully, I found Quynh. Not only are her flowers stunningly beautiful and realistic, but she is an incredibly passionate and giving educator! Quynh has not only shown me the basics but also guided me through many intricate and advanced techniques…always being extremely patient and supportive!”
