How to cut and re-seal stems of artificial flowers and foliage

To help and assist all those who have asked if I could share an easy way of cutting to reduce the lengths of artificial flowers and foliage + those wanting to know how to extend the stems of flower/foliage that are too short.
What you will need to shorten stems:
- Side cutters/wire cutters
- Hot glue gun and glue sticks
What you will need to lengthen and extend stems:
- Garden stacks/narrow bamboo

Thank you for providing guidelines on how to measure for specific vases. I applied it and it worked beautifully!!

[@lisaandres618]

These are wonderful tips. I never thought I had any talent with flower arrangement, real or otherwise and just bought some artificial flowers for a floral arrangement. I have never cut a fake flower and have looked at a few videos. Yours I found the most helpful. Thank you so much!

Watching your videos on a cold snowy day and they warm me up

[@AstarsPlace]

Well Alex, I am very pleased I was able to help. We turned a corner here last night to a dip in temperatures and I feel FALL approaching. It isn't until that drop that I feel I might not have appreciated fully the warm days of summer. Take care Astar

Hi What style and brands are your wire cutters? especially the heavy duty one? Great info video, thanks!!

[@AstarsPlace]

Hi Dee, omgoodness. Wire cutters are the biggest issues of my life. I get good ones and without reason, they grow legs & walk! Honestly it's do annoying and my hunt starts all over again. Personally, I love the cutters that are sprung-loaded. I'll do that hunt & share my findings on a post to my @astarsplace instagram. Kind regards Astar
