    :thankyou2: so much for your comments.The clay I used is a mixture of special Japanese clay and Thai terra clay. Japanese clay which I used was luna clay. Both are an airdry clay and gives most superior results.Making these kind of flowers is time consuming and involves several steps.Normally it comes in white colour.We have to mix the clay with oil colour to give its base colour and paint them with oil colour.Also the petals and leaves have "fine paper covered wire" added for extra strenght and durability. I am also a learner.Very soon i am going to start a blog and try to give tutorial for this.
