When you make the backer, how far apart are the two top circles? It's difficult to put the circles together and get the right shape/size without a template. This video has been so helpful!

Would these measurements work for a garter as well? Or would you size down? If so, what would you go with? Great video btw. Thanks.

Just double checking - on this mum you used 7" rounds for the circle backers, 7.5" flowers for both the full flowers and pedals you folded to add in and make the heart? I already have a request for a heart mum. This was a fantastic tutorial! Thank you for sharing.

@RGMums 6 ай бұрын

Yes, you can use any size you want. You may just have to adjust where you put the pipe cleaner. You can do that by placing your skirt strip across the back of your finished backer to see where it best fits (goes all the way across). Let us know if we can help.
