Satin Flower Buds - Goa
Satin flower buds can be made with minimum materials. Satin cloth, thread, sponge sheet, and green colour tape are used for making flower buds. A square piece of sponge sheet, approximately 8cmx8cm in size, is cut. A satin cloth of approximately 10cmx 10cm in size is cut using scissors. The sponge sheet is placed upon the satin cloth. A wooden stick approximately 15cm in length is taken. A green coloured tape is wrapped around the wooden stick to give a look at the stem. Then holding the stick in one hand, the artisan starts folding the four corners of satin cloth and brings it together. Now the cloth appears like a flower bud along with the stick. The edges of cloth along with sponge sheet tied with the help of thread. A green colour tape is tied around the thread to make the knot invisible. A similar process is followed to make colourful flower buds. All the buds are placed in a flower vase.
