Step-by-Step Details
Tulips are a symbol of spring and perfect for any gift bouquet. This process of making three-dimensional tulips by crocheting separate small and large petals, which are then assembled around a stem to form the flower head. The addition of a wired leaf provides structure and realism.
Final Tip
When glueing the petals, apply the glue only to the bottom third of the petal. This allows the tops of the petals to remain loose and flexible, which contributes to the realistic "blooming" effect of the flower.
