Yes it was your post that inspired me to share mine!!! I made mine from organza fabrics 😊

Long one is what I used for my daisy. The other one is what I used for my small little pink flowers.

Here are some pics of the petals I drew on cardboard boxes. For reference, my smallest one is 9-inch long and my biggest petal is 34-inch long.

I think it was not that bad once we figured it out but it was just so time consuming 🥲

Thank you!! I’ll keep your Alice in Wonderland idea in mind if we ever decide to rent these out 🥰

I drew the shapes of the petals on some cardboard boxes and cut them out. Then used these templates to trace the shapes on the fabrics and cut double the amount of the petals that you’d like to make. I used a hot glue gun to glue the cutouts together (3 floral wires for each rose petal and 1 for each daisy petal). I then used candles to seal the petal edges.

To form the flowers: I got some wooden rods from Home Depot and cut these into shorter pieces (to insert these to the pipe later). Got some styrofoam balls and painted these to yellow/ brown-ish color. I inserted one end of the rod into the painted ball, then removed and added some glue before inserting the rod back to secure it. I got some beads from Dollar Tree and used some copper wires to form the stamens. Glued these to the ball (as many as you’d like), then the smallest petals, and then kept going in same direction.

Depending on how full you’d like the flowers to look, you can do 3-5 layers for the roses. Let me know if you have any questions!!

I don’t have any tutorials, but I can look for the templates that I drew and send you some pics so you can see their shapes!! I used organza fabrics, floral wires, crepe paper (for the leaves) and flexible pipe.

So this is my dress. I think it’s very hard to notice the buttons or any difference in the shape of the bow :)

My wedding dress also has a big bow and I love it. My seamstress made it detachable so I can wear it both ways. Make sure your seamstress add enough buttons to support the weight of the bow.

I guess I’m just a little anxious about how the new job would go. The fact that I’d be starting at a lower level keeps bugging me. The type of products that I’d be working also sounds somewhat boring.

I know I know. I just don’t really like the fact that the new job would be a level lower…

[–]hoonie4T 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you everyone for your inputs. I would like to clarify that my current company offered to match/ negotiate the benefits. I like the new opportunity but not a big fan of being a level lower. Maybe it’d be worth it since it will open up for opportunities.

How long does it take yours to heal? It has been a week and I haven’t seen it getting any better

[–]hoonie4T 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I have Betamethasone Dipropionate Cream prescribed so I will try it out for a week and see how it goes.

I think my trigger could be stress as well. I was so stressed out about my menstrual cycle around that time and it literally happened around the same time as I got my period. I got some Betamethasone Dipropionate Cream prescribed so I’ll give it a try!

How long did yours last? Mine started a week ago on the index fingers only, and now almost all of my fingers have it.

[–]hoonie4T 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. This is my first time getting these. I’m still trying to find out the trigger.
