I like this ! Using fuzzy wire for the flowers means they'll last a lot longer than real cut flowers 😀
When I was a kid (a very long time ago !) we didn't have coloured fuzzy wire. It was only in white, and we would use felt tip pens to colour it if we wanted. We would have to buy it from tobacconist's shops, because it was sold as pipe cleaner for smokers who used pipes instead of cigarettes. But most of the pipe smokers were old guys who would long since have died off, and governments have tried to control smoking of all kinds. So it's nice to see something from back then revived in a far more entertaining way !
That's a fun story! 😊 I didn't know fuzzy wire to be pipe cleaners from tobacconist shops. It's nice how something once so simple is now used for creative and colorful crafts. Yes, now I enjoy making flowers.
