Flowers on Stems

I've shown the flowers.....and the stems....now here they are together:

To put together, you need:

1/8 inch diameter by 48 inch long steel rods
green floral tape
Hot glue gun
Vise

Put in a vise and bend back and forth until you have 6 equal lengths.

Wrap in green floral tape.

Take the top 1/2 inch of the steel rod and bend 90 degrees forward.

Hot glue crochet flower to bent portion of steel rod.

Weave steel rod through the crocheted stem and then twist the stem yarn around.

Let dry.

In the photos, we had not twisted the stem yarn yet - it looked much better when we did.

Aren't they pretty?

Check back tomorrow to see the finished project!!

I might be linking to THESE parties!
