📖 [Rolife Journey] Flowery Sweets & Teas Update #8 - No More Plants Please 😮‍💨

So, I spent days on making plants alone. And ended up questioning my sanity. :distorted_face:

Here are some close-ups of the plants:






Super grateful for the pre-cut petals.

I’m actually really happy with how these turned out, they’re really cute! :yellow_heart:

Holding them in place while the glue dries.

This particular plant was a challenging one to make. I will adjust the leaves so they look more crumpled and natural after the glue completely dries.


Questioning my sanity yet again, having to cut all this grass from scratch. :distorted_face: You can tell where I started losing it because the leaves get sparser and the cuts get messier. :melting_face:

After that, I had to roll each one up and curl every single leaf by hand. :face_with_bags_under_eyes:

Bonus photo of one of the plants being assembled:

I’ve finally made it out of the tunnel to safely say: plants are still not my favourite, but I’ll work on them if I have to! :laughing: I think I just have an aversion to plants because I suffer from year-long hay fever.

I’m looking to find time to finish the base and assemble the tiny details over the next few days. And hopefully complete this long project this week. :front_facing_baby_chick:

I am questioning it as well!
Just kidding, but I know I could not do this many and they look great!

Those look AMAZING! So much tedious work involved. KUDOS to you! I think I would be questioning my sanity as well. Where plants are involved, I’ll make a few, then go build something and then come back…This is why I cross off each step as I go.

I remember making all these plants! :face_with_peeking_eye: The viny plant on the garden chair was the most annoying, I hate anything that involves me having to glue a million leaves! :joy: Also, I hear ya about cutting grass, ugh! :roll_eyes: All your plants turned out beautiful! :smiling_face_with_tear::heart_eyes:

@JDisaduck Wow this looks like a labour of love :sweat_smile: but the results are fantastic! Well done, your patience has paid off!:sparkles::blossom: I’m making a mental note of how difficult the plants can be, before ordering my next kit :joy: I’m building the Sakura Dreamy Tour next and just went and checked the box to see if the flowers looked the same :joy: I look forward to seeing the final built!

:laughing: At one point I was certain I’m going to end up with hayfever from the paper plants hahahaha. This is why the old version of Cathy’s Flower House will always sit in my backlog.

Thank you it really drove me insane but I have a mild form of OCD if I start with one section I must finish it before I move on to the next. :melting_face: I can’t imagine making a full blown flower house or shop.

Omg the bloody chair I completely forgot to take a photo of it but it traumatised me anyway.

Aww thank you so much for your kind words! :pink_heart: Really, it’s more like labour of frustration and love hahahaha.

This is also an older style kit so a lot more DIY and making things from scratch. I don’t believe the Sakura Tour will be like this so you’ll have lots of fun! :heart:

I struggled through it. I think the acetate walls and roof stuff was the worst. But I am so glad I got through it and am done!
