How to make a miniature paper dollhouse plant?
1. Using the pipe cutter, cut your copper pipe to size.
2. Snip the florist wire into pieces of around 3-4cm in length using a pair of scissors.
3. Upload the .svg file to the Cricut Design studio and cut the leaves on the green cardboard using the fine point blade and LightGrip cutting mat. I resized my leaves to around 2cm in height to make this miniature plant.
4. Secure each leaf onto a piece of florist wire using a drop of glue from your glue gun.
5. Place each of the wires inside the copper pipe at different heights and secure them with the glue gun. (You can alternatively use airdry clay in the copper pipe and just push them in.)
6. Bend and arrange the leaves.
