2 Steps to make zinc velvet cherry blossoms
Step 1 Make the cherry blossoms
Cut the red zinc velvet into approximately 4cm long pieces. Take one piece of zinc velvet, bend one end as shown in figure 1, thread the other end through the center of the circle and pull it out to secure the flower petals. Repeat this process until you have the desired number of flower petals.
Glue the flower stamen to 2/3 of the zinc piece, fold it back, and wrap the shorter zinc part around the flower stamen to secure it. Then, alternately glue the flower petals to the flower stamen to complete the cherry blossom. Use brown wax adhesive to wrap around any excess zinc to create the flower branches.
Step 2 Make the flower buds
Take one piece of zinc velvet and bend one end. Glue brown wax adhesive around the zinc piece, leaving the folded end to create the shape of a flower bud.
Step 3 Make the flower branches
Use brown wax adhesive to wrap around the zinc piece to create the flower branches. Carefully attach the stems and flowers you have made to create a large flower branch. This step requires your creativity and skill to make the most beautiful and natural flower branches.
3 Finished product
Once you have created the various flower branches, the next step is to arrange them in the vase to make them look their best. You can also add ribbons, couplets, and lucky money packets to make it more lively.
