Tips, tricks, and improvements
• Work with slightly damp hands – the material will be easier to shape and will not crack.
• Use a straw, skewer, or knitting needle for holes – ideal for precise stem placement.
• If you want a smooth surface, gently sand it with sandpaper after drying.
• For increased durability, we recommend a final coat of clear, glossy varnish.
• Combine with wood, jute, or metal for a modern natural look.
• Create your own floral tools – dividers, holders, stands – precisely according to the size of your vase or container.
