How to make artificial water in a glass vase to display silk flowers

[@conversecone9687]

Thanks for the tip to seal the end of the cut flower to prevent rust. The result is so realistic! You look lovely! Such a beautiful dress!

[@edrockster]

OMG! You're fabulous! Any ideas on cleaning the acrylic water in an older arrangement? I have some hydrangeas in a vase, and the acrylic water has gotten discolored on the top. I'd love to salvage the arrangement.

Another super tip presented in the most gorgeous outfit. 😍 youre one class act

[@victoriarichardson4148]

First of all you look lovely and I really enjoyed this presentation. I'm going to try this I would have never thought to use the glue to prevent rust.

[@AstarsPlace]

Hi Victoria, it works a treat as discovered. I never imagined anything would leach out but it did. My floral life has been transformed. Enjoy x Astar

[@MsEma0810]

You are a class act!!! So fabulous! Thank you for everything you showed. I made a BEAUTIFUL arrangement for my wedding and the resin turned brown (you just taught me it was from the rust!!) now I’m going to redo it

[@AstarsPlace]

Hi Naamah, that's a wee trap we've all fallen into. Took a while to resolve the issue, but lesson well learnt. Warm regards Astar

[@Dr.Mrs.TheMonarch]

Great tip to prevent rust. Beautiful.

This is so helpful! I can't wait to make some arrangements for my mother and sister for Xmas. You are so lovely and put-together! (I type this while wearing yoga pants, a t-shirt, sweater cardigan and ponytail. 😬) Thank you for the great video!

[@justinwhite6787]

So charming and fun, and Easy! Can't wait to do this!!! I'm sure you've mentioned this, but I LOVE your background! Is it a big wall decal, wall paper? So curious, it's beautiful!

[@sodapop4244]

I Love ❤️ your Dress 🌸 Wonderful Ideas! Thank you

[@tracywatson919]

Hello Astar! I am so happy that your website popped up when I was doing a search for how to make artificial water. I've been doing crafts for many years and made many things with floral arrangements. However, like you, I want the arrangement to look real and having the stems in an empty glass vase really bugs me. It needs the resin to hold it in place and also put a little weight in it, like real water would. I just want to thank you for making this video. I really appreciate it. You're a lovely lady, and your demonstration was perfect! Also, if you don't mind me asking, what color of paint is on the wall behind you in this video? I've been looking for something like that, but can't seem to find it.

[@bethfranklin1557]

[@freespeechforall1069]

Thank you, love your outfit.

[@zulemapearce4949]

how do I warm the glass? I am so glad to have found you!

[@AstarsPlace]

Hi Zulema, just use hot water and keep it to the side ready for resin. Quickly dry off and you are ready to pour.

[@hayleyearth]

If 2 parts of product 1 = 150ml and 1 part of product 2 sould then be 75ml so the total should be 225ml, not 250ml...

[@erinberry5318]

Well this is delightful, thank you

Hi Stenhanee, Direct Message me to my @astarsplace instagram and the video tour can commence. Love and best wishes Astar

[@jennifertrinh4973]

Hi this is gorgeous! Are you using epoxy resin?

[@sonjaorand7226]

If I do want bubbles can I stir it faster! I want to make it look like a glass of beer

[@donnamichels1900]

Where can I find the flower mist, Please. Thank you.. Enjoyed the tutorial.

[@AstarsPlace]

Hi Donna, there is a tutorial on my channel. The title is 'how to make a floral fragrant spray for faux flowers'. Super easy to make. Warm regards Astar

[@glowafter4034]

Thank you❤

[@angelabutler9428]

Astar, I apologize I did not click the button to read more to find the name of the product. I still would like to know how you warmed your vase? Also, I forgot to tell you how lovely you look. Thank you

[@AstarsPlace]

Hello Angela, To warm the vase is super easy. I just filled vase with hot tap water and also placed the vase in a sink of hot water. As soon as you have mixed everything, quickly dry off the exterior and interior of the vase THOROUGHLY, then gently pour in mixed fake water. Insert flowers and walk away and Leave to set. Hope this helps, warm regards Astar

[@Noor-kp1yb]

How do you clean the vase from the dust as the flowers are glued in to the base

[@rosalenebradbury2722]

Many thanks - so great to get a NEW ZEALAND slant. Rosie in Whangarei

[@milliganhill7639]

Love it❤️

[@sonjaorand7226]

Can I put dye or food coloring in the liquid

[@reneedimples8336]

I just use clear Elmer's glue 😊

[@angelabutler9428]

What is the name of the product you use to make the faux water, I did not see it listed below? Also how did you warm your vase?

[@lynnr9891]

I have the exact same questions, I hope she will answer! :)

[@maialkhater5556]

What is the name for that what you used it the water ??

[@AstarsPlace]

There are several products on the market. 1. Resin water or crystal clear. 2. 2-part epoxy resin. 3. Crystal water or Quick water. Check out Amazon for suppliers. I was unable to find the Crystal Water, so I opted for best substitute and might I add cheaper option - 2-part epoxy resin. Hope this helps, Astar

[@mardellebraine4607]

What's the floral mist??

[@AstarsPlace]

Hi there, sorry to have taken this long in responding, but I had to put my memory cap on. The recipe for the floral mist is - 30mls of rose water or just water will do & 3mls of any fragrant blended floral oils. Mixed well and then add to a spray mister bottle. Give it a good shake to blend again, before misting artificial blooms. Warm regards Astar

[@GrampiesCorner]

People have been using clear elmers glue for ages to make a vase of artificial flower's that look like it is filled with water.

[@denisetbarnette2345]

[@sherylnorteye382]

[@AirinaAhamed]

[@IsaMGFaria]

Thank you dear Lady. This a fantastic project and I am in love with that. I had no idea how it could be done. Thanks again for sharing such wonderful idea with us. Now I will ask you a favor, if it's possible to you: I've bought some artificail flowers in vases like that, and now I would like to remove them from his "gel". How can we do that?. I mean...I want to use the vase, but with new flowers!....so, how to remove this fake water? Thank you very much in advance! ✿•♡•✿ (*•.♡.•*´) ✿•♡•✿

[@AstarsPlace]

Hello Isa, omgoodness, that's a hard question and something I'm going to need to further research. The company where I bought mine might be able to help though. I'll check in with them and come back to you. Kind regards Astar
