Remove all layers and plastic wires! Place them back and hand sew!

For Roses! The flower measures 8 inches. Bought them for $5 / dozen.

Cut off 4 petals for center bud. roll into the shape of a bud and hand sew again!

I prefer sewing them as it can stand normal wear & tear. I also use my fav hot glue in between the petals!

Thanks ! I like the two different options . Can I ask the name of the seller ? I usually drive out to LA at least once a month . And I've looked for flowers but didn't find the nice big ones .

Are these easy to make? I've never tried one because they scare me... They look so darn cute, though!
