What do we need for the rim?


All our ribbons come with a shiny base, both brocade and organza. Therefore, the flowers will turn out very rich and bright with a brilliant tint. So, there will be three flowers in total on our hoop. Some flowers are sharper, while others are rounded, which is why they are made differently. One flower will have nine rounded organza petals, and two flowers will have double flowers, consisting of eight pointed petals each. We measure out 19 squares of silver brocade 4*4 cm, 6 squares of pink brocade 4*4 cm and 16 squares of burgundy organza also 4*4 cm. We cut out all the squares and burn the sides of each with a lighter.
