Handmade Vase and Flowers



I started at nine this morning and finished this evening a little after 9 pm.  I was shocked, it took so long to make the vase and flowers, three hours on the vase. Jamie, the one that created the vase said this one was the hardest to put together. I love the shape.  It's a perfect size for the three handmade flowers I have in the vase. I've learned a little about it now, I'm sure it won't take that long to make the second vase.
The flowers are approximate 3 1/2" across. 

I bought the Silhouette files today to make this project; I used 3D peony, 3D Gerbera daisy, 3D large Mums, 3D 5 piece curvy vase. I used eight sheets of 12 x 12 inch patterned paper, lots of glue and a chop stick for rolling petals.
Finished height of vase 5 1/2" tall.
