[Beginner Tips] Emilys Flower Shop (Flowers)

So ive started my DIY flowers this afternoon and i havent really done any DIY plants before so im figuring it out…though i have no idea how to make the plants look 3D i instead of Just..well flat

Is there any tricks to this? Im using Hot glue to make them dry faster inside the Pots the kits come with :heart:

For some reason im having troubles with adding photos? If you need them just ask for them below!

I haven’t done this kit yet. But based on the post in this community, it’s quiet challenging.

I haven’t done any flowers so I’m afraid I can’t help you. I’m sure someone here would be able to offer some tips though. I can’t wait to see your plants when you’re finished with them.

@Alicesharpe paper flowers can feel flat at first, so try gently curling petals or leaves around a toothpick before gluing, then vary the height and angle in the pot. A tiny bit of hot glue can help hold that shape, just use less than you think you need. I would love to see photos when uploads behave again.

I have done Miller’s Garden. The flowers are paper. I used glue. It may take time to dry but it can give you the chance to adjust if you dont like the way it looks.
To curl the leaves, I used the edge of the scissors to do so.
Good luck!
