I don’t see the full tutorial for members, is there a link for the tutorial?
Hi Donna! Yes the full photo tutorial is in the Downloads at the bottom of the post.
I am right now making these Hellebores flowers and I’m finding its very hard to put the 5 petals on. I’ve done two so far and I don’t know how to make it right. I get them pretty good and when they dry i pull them down and always two petals are on top of each other. I wish there was a video. I wonder if anyone has made these and have the same problems with these ?
Hi Debra! We suggest using either glue or tape and place one petal on the stem at a time, use hot glue for quicker dry time. Try pulling down the petals as you’re gluing them into place so you have a better idea of where they will lay when the flower is complete. By waiting until the end to pull all the petals down you are a bit blind to how the flower will look in the end! We hope this helps!
All the flowers are so beautiful and lifelike!!! I can’t really figure out my favorite! I guess it would be the rose, pink of course!!!
Thank you Peggy!
So pretty – love the colours 😀
Thank you!
