So yesterday I spent most of the day making just the eucalyptus stems! Yep, you read that right…it took a long time to paint all of the pieces, but I’m happy with the outcome. There are 428 pieces to this build…and yep, I am going to paint all of them. Most of them I will paint just the edges, but the carnation 8 will paint the I tire thing. I’m excited to see how it turns out.

I agree, I think those take the longest. I paint them as well and know they take some time!

Wow, painting 428 pieces is a true test of patience and skill. Your dedication to painting even the edges and the entire carnation 8 shows your passion and attention to detail. I can’t wait to see the final wooden flower basket bloom beautifully.
