24. Place the two petal me-dium flower into the center of the assembled flower, al-ternating petals.

25. If you plan to add a wire stem to your flower, you will want to add it now. Bend a small loop in one end of a length of floral wire. If you don’t plan to add wire, skip ahead to step 29.

26. Place adhesive in the center of the assembled flow-er.

27. Insert the wire through the top of the flower feeding it through the center hole.

28. The loop in the wire should sit firmly in the bot-tom of the last petal added.

34. Place adhesive in the center of the assembled flow-er.

31. Place adhesive along one edge of the cone.

35. Place the trimmed cone in the center of the flower pressing it into the adhe-sive.

(Optional for wired flowers)

36. Add adhesive to bottom of the flower around the wire.

37. Pierce a hole in the cen-ter of a small green flower. Poke the wire through the pierced hole in the flower. Slide the flower all the way up to the base of the carna-tion and press in to the ad-hesive.
