Introduction: DIY Sakura Tree

About: Hello dear viewers and readers! My name is Darja! My hobby is cooking various delicious dishes.

Good afternoon, dear viewers and readers! Today I will show you how to make a sakura tree at home from a regular branch and wax candles.

Supplies

To create a sakura tree, we need a flower pot, gypsum, several white and red wax candles and a dried branching branch from any tree or bush. We also need a saucepan with a spoon to stir and melt the wax.

Use wax candles, tea candles will not work, they are too soft and oily.

Step 1:

Next, take the pot and carefully pour gypsum into it, then fill it with water and mix until it looks like a gruel. Then we insert the branch into the inside of the pot and hold it for a couple of minutes until the gypsum begins to harden.

Step 2:

Next, melt the wax to a liquid state, stirring everything with a spoon, then let the wax cool for 5 to 10 minutes. This way the wax sets faster on the fingers and is easier to remove. When the wax is very hot, it is very difficult to remove it from the fingers and form sakura flowers.

Step 3:

Next, let's move on to creating sakura flowers. Pinch 4 fingers together. Dip your fingers in cold water, then dip your fingers in warm wax and dip your fingers in cold water again. Sakura blossom petals will appear on your fingers.

The number of cherry blossom petals can be alternated from one to five.

Step 4:

Next, we transfer the finished flowers to the twigs while the wax is still warm. When creating a sakura tree, place paper under the bottom of the flowerpot to protect the floor from excess moisture after the wax has cooled.

Step 5:

After the work done, you can enjoy the finished result. This decor can be used to decorate a table or walls in your living room.
