Hi friends its me again trying to make ceramic flowers now. I have not been able to zero in the right recipe as yet. I mixed ceramic powder, white glue, cornflour and glycerin and the flowers have come out ok but is there any other way ??

I am so happy to log in again on this site ! I have made some cold porcelain flowers , and also tried out ceramic flowers. While they were drying I decided to do something with the stockings /nylon lying with me for years , the outcome was stocking roses. Looking forward to making more flowers ...

Saw CP carnations and it was love at first sight. How to make them ? I can make CP roses as I make wax roses anyway. Idea. Why not make wax carnations too !! So I am busy surfing the web for the procedure .
My CP roses are OK but the leaves need work and also new color.
Friends have given a fabulous response to my query about making shiny roses. Yes the natural look is good too. But a topcoat of varnish would act as water-proofing if I make other things later.

Hello friends , I am back with my nearly dried roses but now they are not shiny as before. Does CP lose its sheen after drying or have I failed to get the right proportion ? The work has to painted with varnish I believe . Suggestions please !
