I decided to build the Poinsettia without painting the edges 
because I just can’t help myself.
So far so good. And I just want to once again point out how easy it is to build because there are number guides on the pieces to show you where to insert them.
This is it for now. I will continue the rest tomorrow.
It’s going to be so lovely. I am going to have to get this one next year.
Good that you do it your way! I like edges painted but doesnt mean you have to! Make it yours! Great job as this is so pretty!
Good kit. I see everybody painted it
Looks great! I don’t think it needs to be painted. It is still beautiful. Enjoy!
Thank you everyone for the encouragement 
Cute!!
It’s looking gorgeous already! And honestly, it’s totally fine not to paint the edges, it still looks so clean and beautiful just as it is. Enjoy the build!
Hahaha I doubt I’ll be painting the edges of the flowers so it’s all fine because it still turned out beautifully! 
This is beautiful. Nice work @Jill_Francisco . This is a nice kit, so you can get away with not painting. 
You got a long way on your first day building it.
This is a lovely build, you did a great job so far☺️
