I started with a camellia kit from SDK miniatures. Most of the flowers ended up in this pretty wooden vase, at least for the moment. I thought the vase was painted by Janet Reyburn, but when I looked at the bottom, I noticed that the intials were RW. Does anyone know who RW might be?
Because I knew I was making cut flowers, rather than a plant, I saved some time only adding leaves to the top of the stem. The top of a glue bottle worked well for holding them upright as they dried.In other news, I also spent some time organizing my lace scraps. I saw this idea at the blog French Laundry, and thought it was a pretty idea. I aged some thick watercolour paper, printed images from the Graphics Fairy, and wrapped my lace around. It's so fun to open up my drawer and see all the pretty cards of lace.
It looks great! Thanks for the link...

Miniature flowers are a challenge but well worth the effort. Yours finish off the vase beautifully. I use flower oasis to line them up to dry but the glue top is a good idea.
