FLOWER MAKING... Here it is...Some together...


These are some flowers and painted vases which I made. Please go through individual posts for more details about what materials are used and how to make. Hope it will help you to try one.

Tissue Paper Flowers...

How to make tissue paper flowers?

You will need:
  • Tissue paper
  • Scissors
  • 2 paper clips
  • Floral wire
  • Optional:floral tape,wire cutters

Tissue Paper Flowers...a closer view..


1.  Take 5-6 tissue papers one over the other.Fold it half way and then again to a half. Draw a 
     circle on the top side. You can use a bottle cap with required diameter. I feel that a circle of 
     around 7 cm diameter will give a realistic size.

2.   Now cut the circle out. Clip the paper for keeping them altogether. 

3.   Make a small hole at center of the circle and insert a floral wire through it.Tie it firmly.

4.   For making the petals, separate the first layer of tissue paper and crumble it upwards.

5.   Now crumble each layer one by one.

6.   Use the floral tape to wrap the stem all the way to bottom which will give a more realistic look.




 Try it out. I feel it simple and interesting. 
 What about you?

CLAY FLOWERS

Clay flowers...
These flowers are made by polymer clay.

Make small balls with the clay. Spread it flat and cut it in the desired shape of petals.Use color of your choice.

If you are using, air dry clay, you have to paint it with oil paint.

 Cut leaves also in the same way. It is easy to make the veins of leaves by pressing a thin floral wire when it is still wet.

If you are using long petals, you may try pressing them at the bottom  in the shape you want. But if the petals are small, better use any glue.

And here it is.... My little flowers...
