This is beautiful great one
Can we block a fascinator base with silk abaca
No, haven't tried it, but I doubt
Half a metre.
I have tried fan method, still using it I have tried hair dryer and microwave, but the fascinator came out not strong, please what could be the reason?
It's either you put too much stiffener or too little. "Melted ice-cream" consistency is perfect for blocking. Also allow it cool before you remove it from the block.
Thank you for sharing ma'am, we need more beautiful tutorials from you 😊😊
Sure 😊
Amazing thank you
You're welcome
Amazing
Great idea, I tried using hand dryer for the first time in September for a base molded with warden because I needed to get job ready in less than 24hrsand I got a great result
Weldone! 👌
I love your work. Thank you for the great tutorials
Thanks for watching!
Thank youuuuu!
You're so welcome.
This is very beautiful, did you turn off the fire before dying the sinamay and the bird cage?
You may or may not turn it off. If you leave it on the colour latches to the sinamay faster and more intensely because of the high heat. In this case I didn't turn it off.
Stunning 😍
Thank you! 😊
Thank you for sharing. I have learnt a new trick ❤

Awww ❤️ I'm glad to be of help and you're so welcome here.
Thanks for this tutorial. My question though is that does the glue not stain the fabric?
If you apply the glue carefully at the centre there won't be any stains to worry about, you will eventually cover it with the shiny ribbon.
Gid bless you ma'am. Pls do we have to use a stretchy fabric?
Yes
❤❤❤ So detailed and understandable....love you ma, you are a wonderful teacher
