Finished…and I have to say that even though painting the edges added several hours to this build, I love the outcome. I even painted the stamens in the center yellow so they’d look more real. I like that there was the option to build the stem longer and put it in a vase, but I like the look of the pot. This was more fun than I expected…I would definitely recommend!

It turned out beautiful, @Tkaplan!! I will start building my Poinsettia tomorrow to take a break and disconnect a little. I’m debating whether to paint it or not, but seeing how gorgeous yours looks, I’m honestly reconsidering it. Although I don’t think I have good enough markers to paint it, so it will probably stay as it is. What I will think about is whether to make the pot or not. Since I don’t have any vase, I’ll probably do it because it looks absolutely adorable.

Your poinsettia turned out beautiful! It’s always nice to see a build come together after all the hard work put in! Great job!

Wow! It looks stunning painted. Seeing your pictures is encouraging me to paint mine when it arrives. What paint did you use @Tkaplan ? Did it need several coating?

Beautiful 
did you paint the whole leaf or only the edges? The red looks so bright. I love the yellow center

It is a fun build. I broke one piece but was able to glue it so that no one else will notice. I used Acrylic paint brush markers. I really love them. Have fun with it and show us when it’s finished!

I only painted the edges. I did the leaves, flower petals, and the pot edges. I’m not able to build as fast when I paint but the outcome is worth it.

Thank you!
I used acrylic paint brush markers. I got them on Temu. They are really good but it does take a couple of coats. They dry really quickly so there’s not really a wait time until you can do the next coat.
