Amazing job! Thank you for sharing. What size of card stock did you use for the biggest petal.

[@Donnado-fd9pw]

Perfection!

Thank you! 🥰🥰🥰

Hi! Would you have a suggestion where to get the pink petal paper from in Canada? Thank you!

[@meghantrimaloff9298]

Beautiful! May I ask - what happens if you don't use sand in the piping?

[@HandmadeBySaraKim]

Thank you, the pvc pipe will just stand straight, I do the heat to make it flexible so I could shape it to look more natural.

[@marcytumbarello6465]

WOW! That's incredible. Beautiful work

How did you bend the pipes?

These are beautiful! How much does it cost to make each flower?

[@katyb2793]

I would love to know this too

[@Min2BeDesigns]

That was so good! Thanks for all the tips!

[@christinanordholm6917]

What kind of hot glue are you using, you handle it so soon yet you aren’t getting burned!

[@HandmadeBySaraKim]

I use a discontinued Martha Stewart glue gun, they are the perfect heat!

[@renaerickson4190]

Wow so pretty! And, cool!!! ❤ my husband said they were to large! For him! 😂 reminds me of the wizzard of oz! Flowers!!! Or Alice in wonder land! Great! Job! Thank you for! Sharing!

Man, I made one of these using bulletin board paper and it's just not looking like yours in any way, not even close to as full. I'm confused as to what I must have done wrong. I also made a rose using cardstock and the paper just didn't fold well, ripped, doesn't look right. Also made Dhalia, cardstock, that came out incredibly well. So did the Lily of the Valley.

[@HandmadeBySaraKim]

I would say do more layers if you want it to look full. The rose is tricky because you have to be gentle that it doesn’t tear but have enough force to actually shape and curl back. It will need some practice, I suggest practicing with xerox paper to save your better color cardstock paper., hope this helps 😍

[@rnguyen2516]

Do you have a tutorial for how your paint your flowers? I’d love to see your technique and what brands and colors you use. You do such beautiful work! I was wondering if these can be wall mounted rather than freestanding and what you’d suggest to keep everything together without couplers, etc. Thank you for sharing your craft!

[@katyb2793]

I wonder if you could drill a hole in the pipe the petals are attached to, and hang it on a hook?

[@rnguyen2516]

@@katyb2793 lol too funny! I wish I could make these flowers, but I feel like I need more details spelled out, lol.

[@katyb2793]

@@rnguyen2516 I agree. I really want to make them but.. 🤔 I'm starting with small flowers (well normal sized). I find there's a lot of other channels that give a lot of detail. Then if I can do them, I might be able to make the big ones!

What gsm did you use for the cardstock paper?

[@HandmadeBySaraKim]

What is the diameter of the plastic pot you use for making the cement base?

10inch but you could do bigger

[@elainajohnson638]

Beautiful work! Do you have a tutorial for the large orchid?

[@HandmadeBySaraKim]

Not yet!

[@hollymurrison1562]

You smartie pants with the heated sand.

[@HandmadeBySaraKim]

Thank you! Heated gun or hair dryer can work too but I think heated sand works best 💕

[@detlev8218]

Is it possible to do this all by hand, if so I would be interested in purchasing, thank you!

[@HandmadeBySaraKim]

Most of the giant flowers are handcut templates too so you don’t need a cutting machine.

[@detlev8218]

@@HandmadeBySaraKim I bought a template for the peony, but I noticed it doesnt come with a painting tutorial? How do achieve that
