some new irises



Last Friday I made some other irises, having bought an intriguing shade of lilac while in Switzerland (a miniaturist has to keep her eyes open while travelling, hasn't she?).
The green nailpolish I had acquired appeared a bit brittle and I saw several little holes showing up in the leaves. I toyed with the idea of mini-caterpillars all over the placebut decided to fill up the holes instead.

    Me encantan los colores.
    Siempre hay que ver las cosas por el lado positivo, las hojas reales muchas veces tienen orugas jejeje

  6. Thank you Clara! The technique is basically a fairly simple one. If you follow the tag "wire flowers"on the left, you can find the basic technique.
