Basic Wire Loop II
Once you have made all the necessary numbers of wire loops, it’s time to wrap them around the nylon material. The nylon material looks like a woman’s panty hose. It has a variety of colors.
This is how the nylon material looks like. We will start from one end, inside the nylon material.
Put the wire loop you have made earlier inside the nylon material. We want the nylon material to wrap all the front and the back of the wire loop.
The nylon material should envelope both front and back of the wire loop. It should fit snuggly but don’t stretch too hard or you will tear the material.
This is how it should be once you have stretch the nylon material nicely around the wire loop.
Once you have satisfied, use a flower wire size 28 and tie around the end of the nylon material and your wire loop.
Once you have tied the flower wire no. 28 around the material, snip the excess nylon nicely. Wrap the excess wire around the wire loop holder.
You have successfully wrap your wire loop with the nylon material! Congrats!

hi.
i love you website.
i know this is an old post , but i hope you can help me.
i’ve been searching everywhere on the internet for the nylon material that you use for your beautiful flowers, but the only ones i can find are the ones in women pantyhose, and it becomes expensive to buy them like that.
do you use women pantyhose as your nylon material or do you buy in bolts or something?
do you know any online shop that sells this type of nylon material?
thank you very much.
