[@MissyMiniac]

My pleasure and thanks for watching! I'm sure you will do a fine job of your orchids 🙌 I would love to see when you have made them 😊👍

[@aimee8180]

Thank you for posting this tutorial. Gorgeous! May I ask what are the small green - seeds? that you use at the end for the orchid buds. Thank you!

[@MissyMiniac]

In the video I used polymer clay but you could also use small beads 🙂 👍

[@debbispencer5104]

I am going to your printables to print the leaves NOW and will be making these tomorrow! Thank you so much! What did you use to make the shiny leaves? Is it paper? Did you coat it with something?

[@MissyMiniac]

Thanks for watching! 😃 The leaves were printed on glossy A4 sticker paper (I bought mine online but a good office supplies store should stock these). Do make sure you tag me in or share pics once you're done - would love to see!

[@fluffyspit]

Truly lovely…could you tell us what the little green elements are that you stick on at the end of the petals stalks please…are they lentils?

[@MissyMiniac]

Polymer clay oval balls, just hand rolled into shape and baked. It isn’t very clear in the vid 😣 Look forward to seeing your orchids!

[@rebeccaarmendariz2853]

Wow thank you for this! Quick question. It looks like you let the air dry clay (in the pot) dry? But then how do you get the wires to go into it? Or do you place them in first then let the clay dry? Thx!

[@MissyMiniac]

My pleasure 😊 Place the wires while the clay is still wet and once it is dried, your stems are set in place👍

[@ladylee8364]

Hello there im so glad i found your channel i have been having so much fun watching all these minature projects quick question having a really hard time trying to find gold leaf size glue would you please be so kind and let me know where we might find it please and thank you

[@MissyMiniac]

Any good art or craft shop should stock gold leaf glue - it goes on milky and after 20 or so minutes of drying, it remains tacky. As I don't know which part of the world you are in, I can't recommend a store to buy from. Thanks for watching! 😊🙏🏻

[@lesleymetcalfe7212]

Thank you for your beautiful flowers! I got in a bit of a muddle with the very thin tissue paper (a problem with tissue sticking to my fingers) so improvised by making the centres of the pink orchid flowers using markers. It's probably because I used ordinary tacky glue rather than the glue you have recommended. Nevertheless I'm pleased with the result. I used spackfilla in the pot because I didn't have any air drying clay. It's set nicely like a rock!

[@MissyMiniac]

Spackfilla is a great alternative to fill your pot. If you post pics of your flowers on Instagram or FB, do please make sure you tag me as I'd love to see!

[@jeanettereynolds3151]

Beautiful but for me I hant the patience or steady hand.but brilliant 🇬🇧

[@MissyMiniac]

Thanks for watching ☺️🙏 patience is definitely the key to mini making.

[@Debcinla]

What is the block you're using at 3:20 to shape the petals?

[@MissyMiniac]

Just another type of polystyrene foam (used as a building material - bought from my local hardware store). Shaping is just as easily achieved using a clean styrofoam takeaway tray/container 👍

[@janetcrompton2109]

What is the difference in gold leaf glue and others

[@MissyMiniac]

Gold leaf size dries sticky and maintains a tacky state whereas many other types of glue are no longer sticky once dry.

[@jeanettereynolds3151]

I would love to know how to make the tiny urns 🇬🇧

[@MissyMiniac]

I didn’t make the one in the video but I do throw my own mini ceramics on a mini wheel, much like full size pottery 👍☺️

[@simoneribeiro5395]
