" Towering Hollyhock by Livia Cetti. Photography by Addie Juell, courtesy of Abrams. Born without a green thumb? If you&amp;#039;re even the slightest bit crafty, you can make paper flowers (the newest gardening phenom!) blossom. Paper florist Livia Cetti, of The Green Vase, is at the forefront of the centuries-old craft&amp;#039;s resurgence (she&amp;#039;s decorated the White House with her faux blooms and her corporate clients include Anthropologie, Kate Spade and Bergdorf Goodman, among others). Sweet Peas, Garden Roses, Japanese Anemones, Camellias, Hibiscus, Poppys, and Peonies are just a few of the flowers she can sprout in seconds indoors anywhere sans sunlights and water. These immortal bouquets only call for tissue or crepe paper, scissors, glue, floral tape, wire, and basic household bleach. Here, we admire six of Cetti&amp;#039;s lifelike perenialls.
