How to work with a double edge flower making iron

This special Japanese brass double edge iron (spoon) is essential instrument in modern art of flower making. It is an universal instrument for making roses, leaves, peonies, asters, chrysanthemums and dahlias.. Ideal tool for working with any type of fabric, leather and silk.

Now I would like to show you an amazing advantage for flower making of EVA FOAM, its water resistance. Unlike silk and most fabrics, it isn’t afraid of water.
Lets make a small experiment. I have already painted and shaped the petals for a flower. In my flower making Video Tutorial I tell in detail how to do it. I dip the petal into the water. As you see, it doesn’t change the shape at all!
When the petal dries, it keeps its shape.

Nothing will change with our colours as well. If you still are worry about it, spray your flower with hair spray. It will completely prevent any colours loss.
I don’t advise you to stay under a strong shower for several hours, but light rain or humidity wouldn’t spoil your headpiece with EVA FOAM flowers.

HAPPY CREATING!
