I went to a craft group meeting this morning. We made these organza flowers, which was fun. The edge of each layer is seared with a candle flame, which makes it crinkle. Makes me think that I shouldn't stand too near a fire when wearing the flower as a brooch, or it might completely disappear!
Wow that is beautiful,I bet that was a fun class, I singe the ends of ribbons to keep them from fraying and reminds me how flammable lots of synthetic fabrics are because they are made from petroleum.
ReplyDeleteI love this! What a pity you aren't closer, I would ask you to make me one to wear to my daughter's wedding - it's the exact tonings of the outfit I am planning.
ReplyDeleteI'd have made one for you if I was closer. They're pretty easy to make, you should make your own!

ReplyDeleteBut I can admire and appreciate your flower very much.
I know what you mean - I avoid anything to do with glue or paint at all cost!
