Tutorial

People on Facebook like my sweet wrapper flowers so I through why not and make an tutorial of how to make on of them flowers. Reason is when I was young that how I started to learn by looking at tutorials of making something easy so when you start making it you can add your own style or twist to it. Plus it would be cool having people making my flowers because it shows that I teach them something that they think looks really nice.

Flowers

Starting making the flowers out off stuff I can find in the bin. The first material I was using is sweet wrappers just because of the different colours/patterns they are and a lot of flowers are very bright so I though why not and using wire for the main body of the flower and PVA glue for sticking. After I finish one flower I starting to improve my skills with using sweet wrappers on another flower and then for the next flowers I made plus will be making for next we adding on more different materials like the last image of this blog I used a toothpaste box for the flower and it looks really nice but will have to work on it abit more.

I've also starting putting these images on other public site like Facebook to see people reaction on these images.

Put this photo 3 days ago. I've have now 25 links and 1 comment saying "pretty' this picture which to me show that what am I doing is good and I find it nice people enjoying my work so it make me want to make more just for people enjoyment.


Put this photo late night and its got 12 links plus 10 comments. The comments I found intersecting because my friend who doesn't do art wants me to make more of these flowers and he give me an idea saying "How about making a bunch of them actually coming out of a Quality Streets box/tin? " with is a good idea because its still junk materical I'm using but it like the flowers are growing in the junk insted of ground.
   
Just a few minutes ago I've upload this photo and I've got 2 links for far so I can't saying anything about this photo yet but maybe next blog I will give you a review of what people said about it.

Reject - Accept

Full image of my work area.

I though it will be an good idea to show my display of my working area because for my final project in uni is reject - accept.

Which is how can I make flowers with are nice to look at and its accepted to people in normal life to last longer so I've pick wasted/junk materials which is the rejected side because people don't want but because I'm using this materials for making the flowers it will make them accept as well.





 Because I wanted to know every bit to a flower I started to break them into there single parts of it and layer it out in order to see the different size, colour change, order, etc etc.
