Kundan flowers

Kundan stones are available in any fancy store. Flower making wire can be bought from a craft store. Aluminum wire can be used alternatively.

Pass a small length of the wire(6-7cm) through the 2 holes in the stone.
Wrap the ends of the wire behind the stone and twist them tightly. This makes a petal.

Now join 5 such petals to make a flower. Make sure the wires are twisted tightly together.

For the base, I used plaster of paris mixed with water and molded in the shape of the palm of a hand.

Once the plaster is completely dry(drying takes a day approx.), paint the hand black.

Use cotton dipped in gold paint and smear on the hand, when the black paint is half dry. This gives the bronzed effect.
