The directions for these are in the new Mary Jane Magazine. I must be doing something wrong.I'm on Hankie number three, don't want to talk about the first two. There looks to be SOME hope for the third one. I wonder if there is a show me how to do it the right way site. I have never been good with directions. Thats why I stay home a lot.

This is the only one that I found...look after the language of flowers part....I don't know if it is the same as the one you are trying or not...I need to subscribe to the magazine, and don't have this issue yet. Hope it helps some.

Well not exactly what I was looking for. But a very pretty site! I could spend some money there, you know if I had any. Such pretty things.

I haven't seen the Magazine - are you trying to make tussie mussies from hankys? I have a tutorial on my blog for doing that..... if that is what I think you're talking about...... I can never make a link here; but if you click on my blog link and go to my January 2010 posts it's in there somewhere.

Hosanna, that is a wonderful tutorial. That is the design they were going for in the magazine. I think your explaination and the pictures to go with it made it more understandable. Thank you. I know that cleared it up for me, I think it will for Nancy also.

Here is what I think - as if that matters! A mussie tussie, or a May basket, which is a cone of flowers, can be anything we make it to be! I am using an old metal ceiling tile to make mine! Folding in the corners, and filling with an old hankie and flowers. Add a hanger, and you have something to keep. Be creative and think outside the mag!
