Fantastic Flowers by Funskool
« on: Friday 12 March 2010, 07:51 pm »
Julie emailed me this toy description:

"I am looking for a toy I believe was from the 80's. It was a paper flower maker. It came with scented coloured paper and I think 4 different flower punches. If memory serves, you open the plastic punch press much like a compact (it had little teeth inside) and put a piece of paper in. You would close it and I think rolled it through a pasta maker type thing, open it and you would have a paper flower. I loved it and would love to share with my kids. Thank you"
Julie

UPDATE!!!
Thanks to Jennifer who identified this toy as Fantastic Flowers, produced by Funskool in the early 90's.

I wanted it too!

But probably why I never got it was that you had to keep buying the refill packages...
