On my online workbook this week: A Very Merry… all elf pass into Santa’s workshop, special department of tinkering together those Soooo Good, for Goodness Sake moments

Dear

This week's inspiration are a few things that simply feels so good.

My tip for you this week is to part the plant material so that you can insert a flower stem already loaded with glue without it sticking to everything or smearing messy glue as you go along.

Part your design details where you want to insert the flower stem with a bamboo skewer. Open the parting to one side and insert the skewer to stand in the design. Cut a generous stem for the flower so that it will not drown in the plant material once inserted. Dip the stem in floral glue. Place the stem in the opening. Remove the skewer once the flower is in place and use the skewer to gently tease the plant material back into position (see the pictures above) around or over the flower.

Enjoy!

Every good wish,

Christine
