Orchid Color Sequence Chart 3

There are three parts to the orchid flower, the back, the middle and the front. One hooping (4 x 4 inch) is required for each part and is sewn on water soluble stabilizer.

1. Create each of the parts as described in previous instructions.
2. Assemble all parts:
       a. Three petal parts
       b. Stem and center pieces from purchased silk flower
3. For the front, using the same technique as shown in the Calla Lily flower previously, construct the “bell” section
of the orchid. You will need to use a bit of hot glue to secure the “bell” section to together.
4. While flower sections are still wet, push the flower center stamen through the “bell” section.
5. Add the two petal section.
6. Add the final three-petal section to the post.
7. Insert the flower stem into the bottom of the orchid flower stamen section.
8. Arrange the wet petals as desired and hang upside down to dry.
9. Wrap the stem with floral tape. Your Orchid flower is complete.
