Tulip

1. Coil one end of a 12 cm craft wire and insert it into the tulip. Stuff with polyester fiberfill (as in Photo Tutorial C1-C3).
2. Fold the tulip in half and insert the tapestry needle into the middle of the opposite st, pull the yarn through. Go back to the previous st, pull yarn through. Repeat this step one more time (as in Photo Tutorial C4-C6).

3. Next, fold the tulip again so that it forms four small corners. Insert the tapestry needle into the middle of the st, then into the middle opposite st. Pull the yarn through. Then go back to the previous st, pull yarn through. Repeat this step one more time. Weave in tail (as in Photo Tutorial C7-C12).

4. Using tea green yarn, insert the tapestry needle into the same hole as the craft wire. Wrap the craft wire with the tea green yarn for 5.5 cm. Then, take leaf #1 and wrap it together with the craft wire for another 1 cm. Next, take leaf #2 and wrap it together with the craft wire and the wire from leaf #1. Tie 2 knots to secure, then trim to even out the wire ends (as in Photo Tutorial C13-C17).

Soil

Insert the tulips into the top of the soil with 2 sts apart, then bend the wire into a hook shape (as in Photo Tutorial D1-D2).

Pot

1. Fold the opening and stuff it with polyester fiberfill. Don’t forget to add 2 marbles to make the pot heavier (as in Photo Tutorial E1-E2).
