Москва, Спасибо большое!!! Очень красивые цветы!!!!

[@Liagriffithx]

:)

[@markclay5347]

Hi Lia. My flowers are looking great - thanks to you! In the book/ templates, there is a circular template to cover the ball not an oval - should it be oval?

[@Liagriffithx]

Wonderful! We are constantly upgrading our templates so I can see why there may be confusion. Either shape will work fine for the center, in my newer templates I have been using the oval since it has a bit more surface area to cover.

[@serefina666]

I absolutely love your tutorials. Would it be possible to use craft glue instead of glue on this project?

[@Liagriffithx]

Yes you can! If using craft glue instead of hot glue, it is good to keep in mind that the drying time takes quite a bit longer. I would suggest allowing the flower to dry hanging upside down so that it holds it’s shape.

[@ngamreilakasar4059]

💖💖💖💖

[@philiphoel4290]

I like watching the video tutorials, because they show clearly all the different steps. I sometimes have a hard time visualizing some of the printed instructions in your book. So I find it extremely helpful to be able to actually see how you meant for any given step to be done. Because unfortunately for us Muggles, the pictures don't move in our books.

[@Liagriffithx]

Haha! So happy to hear :)

[@angelclstudioartgallery591]

I need to ask you something please do I have to paste wax on the crepe paper for mt flower to last a long time

[@rovickparzuelo3825]

What kind of crepe paper is that?

[@pamdennis1007]

The flowers are beautiful. Where can I get the patterns?

[@Liagriffithx]

They are on our site. Find the link under the video by clicking "show more".

[@tamannakhanam3117]

How long lasting is this crepe paper flower?can i wash this flower when it will dirty?

[@soulmateartgallery7321]

For how long we can save these flowers?

[@graziellabusato6952]

Purtroppo non parlo inglese ma sono ammirata dai tuoi stupendi fiori. Che carta crespa usi, da quanti grammi e come fai i gambi? Thank you! Hai delle mani ed un gusto meravigliosi!

[@Liagriffithx]

We use our Lia Griffith brand paper! Our extra fine crepe paper is equivalent to 60 grams. Our heavy floristic crepe paper is equivalent to 160 grams and 250% stretch.

[@h.zabbasi3154]

How many flowers can I make using your single sheet of crepe paper ?

[@dhanielcabullo9530]

❤❤😊woooooooooooooooooooooooooòoòooooo

[@annlyon.2040]

Can you put the gold paint first before you cut them ? After the stretch ?

[@annlyon.2040]

Thank you very much !!!

[@annlyon.2040]

Thank you Lia !

[@Liagriffithx]

You can but I like to do it after since it creates a bit of a paint "ball" at the end.

[@buddy77587]

So purdy

[@berthaquelal5006]

Hermosas flores 💐 lamentablemente no pone las medidas de cada pétalo. Las personas necesitamos saber cuantos cm mide cada parte de la flor .Gracias.

Very nice so natural beauty Rajakumari kariikalan trichy

[@buddy77587]

Bulk up stem

[@krizmendoza4614]

Is it necessary to use hot glue or is it okay to use a normal glue like Elmer's glue?

[@Liagriffithx]

We now use a white glue called Bearly Art. However, if you are working with heave crepe paper, you will want to have a hot glue gun on hand.

[@shatakshiagrawal3062]

Hi lia, How do I get your crepe papers in india? Do you ship internationally?

[@Liagriffithx]

As a small business, we are so pleased to now be able to offer international shipping. We are using USPS Priority International, as we understand that this gives a fast service, but should also remove any duties and taxes that may be otherwise imposed. The cost is based on a weight and destination calculation. We will be steadily increasing the number of countries that we are able to ship to this year. In the meantime have you checked out the global shipping options with Amazon UK? This can be a great solution too. Look for the logo “Global Store” on the product: www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=Lia+Griffith&ref=nb_sb_noss

[@shatakshiagrawal3062]

@@Liagriffithx thank you .will order it from a seller who ships to India

I guess where I grew up we pronounced it pee OH ney. Tom AYA toe, tom AHHH toe. ;-)

[@parthabhattacharjee914]

What is the white ball called?

[@Liagriffithx]

1 inch foam ball

[@aurimanualidad6740]

Please, can someone tell me where the molds are?

[@Liagriffithx]

I do not use molds. As you can see in the video, I cut from my patterns which you can find on our site.

[@aurimanualidad6740]

@@Liagriffithx Ok Sorry, I'm not speaking English and I have to translate to be able to comment on. Thank you very much for answering me as fast and congratulations for the beautiful work you do 😍😍😍😍 how can I get the employer? I could send it by mail?

[@northcoastize]

Unfortunately I bought crepe paper from a discount shop & the paper was thin & had no stretch, so I wasted my time cutting out the patterns. Just be sure that the crepe paper has the ability to stretch!

[@Liagriffithx]

You are right! Very important. Our crepe paper in our shop feltpaperscissors.com is absolutely perfect for paper flower making.☺️

[@northcoastize]

Please make sure that you buy crepe paper that has a lot of stretch! Otherwise you can't successfully make these beautiful Peonies!

[@Liagriffithx]

This is true! Our Lia Griffith brand Crepe Paper works perfectly 😉
