Down the Lane

When I was little I was given a craft set for making flowers out of wire you shaped into petal / leaf shapes and dipped into a coloured, clear liquid. It formed a film spanning the shape you dipped into it. This would harden and form a cellophane like film..

I cant find anything similar now, any ideas???

Yes ... um ... fantasy something um... let me have a look & see what I can find...

Ta Da!
(I haven't compared prices or anything - but I can recommend this company as being very reliable & helpful)

Thank you... Its called Fantasy Film xx

Kirsty Allsop did something similar at a craft fair, check out her series on 4OD

Thats what reminded me Perchy, they used gelatine... but this is a more permanent stuff..

A craft show I went to last year was doing demo's - making flowers out of wire and the plastiky stuff they were really pretty .

That looks such fun! I am not sure I have seen it before.

I know exactly what you're talking about. We used to make them in school at our social center. I wish that I could find out too. Love that stuff what ever it is. Back in the early 70's I believe it was.
