Stocking Flower Making

Stocking Flower Making

Artificial flowers are also made by individuals who like this sort of thing as a hobby. Their method is much simpler that the manufactured products and some of their finished products can be quite impressive. They acquire the necessary materials from their local craft shops, such as a clear fast drying glue, scissors, wire, wire cutters, floral tape, paint brushes and craft paints. They also have to purchase the materials with which the flower is going to be made, such as paper, stockings, or cloth; some even use dry flowers and berries to use in their creations. After collecting all the necessary materials, they then create a mold of the flower they would like to make with a stencil or some such tool, after which each petal has to be made individually and colored and then they are joined by a wire stem which is covered in floral tape. The petals are not as intricate as the manufactured products and instead of placing wire in the petals they just usually draw the outlines of them onto the petals before painting.
