Cupped flowers look nice in an arrangement if you add a stem and calyx, or you can use them as little Easter and gift baskets.
This is a very simple technique that even young children can do.
To make cup shaped flowers you will need:
|
|
Gently push your flower into the lid or cup.
Mist with water or hold over some stem until damp. Reshape in the cup if necessary. |
|
Let dry in the cup. When it’s thoroughly dry you should be able to remove it and it will hold it’s shape. |
