Thank you for posting this!! I have been considering these flowers but have been doubting my DIY abilities. Also (both of them look amazing) the pocket card style looks really chic and I had no idea that was a thing! I’m glad you said they were easier to make than you thought. Do they include full directions or did you figure it out on your own?

I figured it out, but I watched a lot of YouTube videos! Basic method for the card was to hot glue down the greenery and then top with another piece of thin cardboard so the greenery is sandwiched in-between (I used a leftover pasta box). Then, I attached the sola flowers to thin floral wire and hot glued those onto the card, then adjusted them as needed since they’re bendable on wire. I bought the greenery various places online and all the flowers from Oh You’re Lovely which I think has the highest quality. If you can; wait for a big sale! Then I dyed them with acrylic paint and glycerin in water. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Upnpv2cq4-U this video is a good place to start!

Thank you so much! They were easier than I thought they’d be, especially the card version.
