Materials Used: Leather fern, carnations, wax flower, floral foam, plastic round container, daisy poms

What skills I learned: What I learned was to never poke the oasis recklessly because any hole is permanent and foams cannot ever grow back. In addition, the stems should be cut diagonally to increase the size of the opening where water goes through. Besides the skills I also learned that I should use less flowers and make them look more abundant to save the cost but increase the price at the same time.

What was difficult: The difficult part was shaping the flowers. Since it is a round arrangement, the shape had to be circular in all 360 view. Therefore, I had to constantly look around it and make sure it was properly placed. ]]> 2018-09-24 18:57:40 UTC https://padlet.com/900020097/smsalcjkui52/wish/285218758 900020097 https://padlet.com/900020097/smsalcjkui52/wish/287818834 Project name: Flower crown
