Description
This tutorial is designed to introduce the elements of realistic silk flower painting and making. You will find it particularly useful if you want to learn how to arrange silk flowers into wedding boutonnieres, combine flowers and work with different fabrics.
Calla lilies are one of the most beautiful flowers with a unique flower form. Calla lilies come in a wide array of colors, think shades of green, pink, purple, yellow and orange.
In this tutorial you will learn to make a very realistic calla lily that is arranged into a silk flower boutonniere. But that’s not all. Together with the calla lily you will master miniature velvet roses and silk blades of bear grass. All these elements can be successfully used in other designs.
Feel free to use your imagination and create a wide range of other accessories with these beautiful flowers. Made with two layers of superior fabrics the calla lily looks delicate but is rather robust and long wearing.
To create the calla lily and miniature velvet roses you will need some millinery tools, however the shaping and assembly are relatively uncomplicated and suitable for beginners.
The thorough step-by-step detailed photo tutorial gives detailed step-by-step explanations on how to make the unusual calla lily flowers. You will be able to create a wearable silk calla lily boutonniere and hopefully many more wonderful pieces with this attractive and very popular wedding flower.
With more than 210 pictures explaining in detail the whole process of creating your own silk calla lily boutonniere, the 114 page pdf tutorial (no hard copy is available) will unlock the mystery behind the unusual flower. I have included the pattern which you can enlarge or reduce depending on your project. The photo tutorial comes with an additional video that demonstrates most tricky points for you.
