Polymer rainbow roses

Hlavach on PCDaily

Ann Duncan Hlavach knows her roses. The color tricks she learned in a recent class in Chicago with Lindly Haunani took her flowers to a new level. “I think my head may have exploded,” she says.

Rainbow roses are a real phenomenon. Here’s a tutorial on how to tint a natural white rose.

But I prefer Ann’s translucent petals with their contrast tinged edges and jewel centers. You can enjoy them for a whole lot longer. You’ll find more on Etsy, Facebook and Pinterest.

              Oh how wonderful! What a fun idea. I love the edging on the petals…what a great contrast.

                  Wonderful blends and very unusual, as well. These are stunning, Ann! And your malachite rose on Etsy is very lovely…malachite being one of my favorite stones, you have complimented Mother Nature very well. Congratulations on being featured one PCD!

                    I love these roses, they are absuloty beautiful. Petals look very thin. What kind
                    Of polymer was used. Are they fragile or not?

                      Thank you all very much.
                      I use Premo. They are remarkably durable but not unbreakable.
