Description
Excerpt from How to Make Wax Flowers: Instructions
Roll a very small piece of pale yellow wax on the extreme point, to form a tiny bulb, allowing a little of the yellow wax to project beyond the wire. Take a blunt steel knitting needle, wet the blunt point and pick up the forget-me-not on the end of the needle and place it on the small yellow bulb at the point of the stem, pressing it firmly with the blunt point of the needle, to make it adhere firmly to the yellow bulb and assume the natural shape.
Five or seven ?owers with a few buds will be sufficient to group together. Though rather tedious to make, this ?ower will well repay the modeller for the time bestowed on it, and will be a good introduction to other small intricate ?owers.
