Hi Helmar Fans! Cathy here with you today sharing a Rainy Day Bouquet created with a pair of Wellies! A perfect quick project to brighten someone's day. It went together in no time at all with the help of my Silhouette Cameo and Helmar adhesives.
The flowers were created with my Silhouette and a file that you can find here from Jamie Koay. I cut enough patterned paper and card stock to create 10 flowers for my bouquet.
I used the Helmar Quickfix Permanet Adhesive Runner to adhere all the layers of my flowers. Super fast and the runner has such great hold.
I next adhered the flowers to the painted stems with Helmar's 450 Quick Dry Adhesive. I love how fast this glue dries, I honestly had all ten flowers glued to the stems in just a couple of minutes. Then I added my buttons to the centers with the Helmar's 450 Quick Dry Adhesive.
After you have your flowers all assembled, all that is left is to arrange them in your wellies. I used two 3 inch stryofoam spheres inside the wellies and just pushed the flowers into place. A few of them got a little loose when I was trying different spots, so I just added to bit of the Helmar 450 Quick Dry Adhesive right to the tips of the dowels and inserted them....it held like magic.
Thanks for joining us here today at Helmar!
This is such a darling spring project!! Love the boots! ~ Blessings, Tracey
