Peach flower in black water crystal beads over white water crystal beads

Categories: black, white, peach, flower arrangement, red, beads, water gel, floral gel, floral crystals, water crystals.

Instructions

1. Open one packet of black and one packet of white water crystal beads. These beads are to be soaked in different containers.
2. Fill one container with roughly 2 liters of water to soak black crystals, fill another container with roughtly 2 litre of water to soak white water crystals.
3. Soak the beads for 12 hours.  The beads will absorb the water and slowly expand, see water crystal expansion in water for an illustration.
4. Rinse the remaining water out.   The beads are rather slippery and bouncy, and are softer and easier damaged, so take care handling them.
5. Place the flower in the center of the glass vase, hold it and then fill half of the vase with the white water crystal beads and top up with black crystals. Do not insert the flower into the vase after it has been filled with crystals to avoid breaking the crystals. Always arrange the flowers first and then gently surround the flowers with water crystal beads.
6. If the beads shrink due to water evaporation, place them back in water and they will expand again, see caring for water crystals for more information.
7. You can substitute the black and white floral crystal beads with any other colors in our color range.
