Step-by-step tutorial for Boho Botanical vases
1. Roll out a block of FIMO effect botanical in the desired colours about 2 mm thick. The layer should be as long as your first test tube and fit around it once.
2. Cut two sides straight using the FIMO acrylic roller and cutting blade and wrap them around the test tube.
3. Cut off all the overlaps with the cutting blade and smooth the transitions with your fingers.
4. Cure the wrapped test tube in the oven at 110 degrees for 30 minutes.
Tip
If you don’t have test tubes in different lengths, you can use aluminum foil (double-layered) to visually lengthen the test tube.
Design tip Boho Botanical vases
The FIMO effect botanical-coated test tubes can be arranged in a row (preferably with superglue), draped individually or tied together as an ensemble with a pretty ribbon.
