Place the container on its side to make it easier to stack the foliage in the container.
Place the lily foliage length wise in the container
Stack the leaves to slightly overlap while gently rolling the container.
Roll the container while stacking the leaves to cover the surface.
Keep rolling the container while stacking leaves in the inside
When the container is filled gently tilt the container upright
Roll a leaf around a skewer to create the tight roll in the mid point.
Remove the skewer.
And slip the roll into the middle of the spiral.
Fill any gaps by slipping in additional leaves.
Adjust the position of the foliage and lift some of the stems out with a bamboo skewer
Fill the container with water.
Slip in a few lily pistils (or flowers) to follow the spiral and add a few crystals.
