We are so pleased with the wonderful step-by-step in the Craft and Hobby Association Magazine; Craft Industry Today featuring our new Flower Maker. To make it easy for you to see, we are reposting each step with a larger photo as originally submitted by Carmi Cimicata
Our finished necklace showcases many of the new Tropical Punch components. The Flower Maker is special and we wanted to be sure to put a spotlight on it.
Step One – Gather your supplies.
Tropical Punch™ by Dazzle-it Flower Maker
Tropical Punch™ by Dazzle-it Lucite Petal Beads
Dazzle-it -Stretch Band Cord
Step Two – Take note that The Flower Maker has two rings on opposite sides, which can be linked by jump rings and built up into small or large sections. You’ll need to know where these are later when you join this flower to chain or fibers.
Step Three: String your Lucite petals with elastic cord and tie a knot.
Step Four – Cut away extra elastic. Your new elastic circle of petals will stretch right into place on the Flower Maker.
Step Five – Admire your flower. (We were not kidding when we said you could make an exotic flower in just minutes.)
Step Six – Link the flower to your choice of chain or fiber.
