Description Ok, a weird one I'm not sure if anyone has done an orchid before but the idea came to me when a chatter on Etsy mentioned whether I could do Orchids....so I thought "Well, what the heck, let's give it a try".

I'm not too sure if I was successful as I haven't seen an Orchid in real life so I hope you guys can tell me whether I failed miserably

About 2-2.5hrs to make...

Measurements

Wooden Hair Stick: 15.5 cm / 6.10”
Flower: 7.5 cm / 2.95” wide
Dangling Pieces (Willow Falls): Long = 16.5 cm / 6.49”, Short= 14.5 cm / 5.70”

Available for purchase in my Etsy Store

Hmm... I think that I would just make the petals round and forget about this pointed shape

I had a green orchid last year, but had to leave it in England while moving I wonder if my flower is all right and still alive?

exactly! it's like you are restraining your creativity. It's the same with drawing for me too, once I draw something, I won't draw the same thing again.

Sometimes it depends on the design- some of them I like so much that I would just copy them in all of the rainbow colours just to repeat it

lol, that's very true, plus in a way, the design allows you to be creative with the colour
