One of my favorite flowers! I definitely want to try a mix of these for my home office space ❤

Beautiful

Thank you

[@lensbaad6069]

How would you suggest storing them for future projects??

[@HandmadeBySaraKim]

They all pull apart so I just store the flower heads separately in a closet and the stem and base could be stored away usually in my garage

[@allicat98rules]

how well do these hold up? thinking of making some for a wedding but don't want them falling apart mid event!

[@HandmadeBySaraKim]

If it’s outdoors and windy, you’ll have to weigh it down on the bottom because it’s top heavy.

Maravilloso esto es arte

[@HandmadeBySaraKim]

Thank you 💕

[@cajunhimself]

What waterproof material would you use?

[@cajunhimself]

I wonder if you could include fiberoptic lights as the stamen

[@HandmadeBySaraKim]

You could use fabric or weather seal it but I’ve never actually made them weather proof and tested it out so I’m not sure.

[@HandmadeBySaraKim]

Yes!! I always wanted to try that, they even have battery light bulbs that would be so fun to try!

[@detlev8218]

are cutting machines and circuits required? I want to do this all by hand

[@HandmadeBySaraKim]

You could make these by hand too! I actually prefer to cut them by hand for giant flowers- www.handmadebysarakim.com/digital-templates?category=Giant%20Flower%20Template

Good morning Question how long should the PVC Pipe be for the main flower not the stem .? are there any more specific instructions in PDF form any where? I have purchased the template but can't find any directions ... much appreciate your help.

[@HandmadeBySaraKim]

Do you mean the coupler that’s attached to the flower? You could do 1 or 1.5 inches. This tutorial are the instructions, if you have any specific questions, please email me at [e-mail]

[@yvonnecaldwell9069]

@@HandmadeBySaraKim No I mean the length of the PVC pipe used for the centre of the flower of which you attach the coupler to.

[@yvonnecaldwell9069]

How much does this weigh? wanting to make some to hang at my wedding but would need to hang from wire or fishing line

[@HandmadeBySaraKim]

I’m not too sure the exact weight but it’s fairly light since it’s just paper, you could also use command strips 💕

[@stephanygranja169]

what type of paper is that?

[@HandmadeBySaraKim]

Cardstock paper 💕
