There is a whole world of mini tutorials out there in other languages. Somehow or other, I ended up spotting a different technique for making a spider plant. You may recall that my
original attempt at spider plants were made from plastic, and rather than curling downwards, they stick straight up like Einstein's hair, which is really unfortunate because I used the head vase to plant it in. So, it looks more like a punk rocker than a spider plant in a Wiinblad vase.
craftland minis und
anderes set me on a new path. There was another
blogger that went hog wild with masking tape and wire, and I took one look at it and thought, cool, but, no. Too hard. Craftland's seemed just right.
Craftland has a
document that I copied the image from and pasted into Word, but then, after doing a bit of Google translating, I realized I was supposed to print the PDF front to back, so that the leaf design would show on both sides. Never mind, I just painted the back of my printout, and saved paper as well, since I printed a few other goodies on one sheet. I cut it out, glued it, shaped it, and Presto! A new plant. Oh, and even the camera cooperated allowing my to take these photos. Thank you, Craftland and camera.
Oh I like easy! This is a great one thanks for sharing! xx

ReplyDeleteWow! I'll file that under "hard things to try when I have oodles of time". Very cool, but way too time consuming for me right now.
DeleteThat spider plant looks great, but I am a fan of your punk rocking spider plant too :D
