and the back of the flower are coated, then lift out of the plaster mixture and give it a little shake and a tiny shimmy to remove any excess. gently place the flower on your already prepared drying surface. at this time you can sort of position your flower in a position that you find appealing. although i used three of the same white fake flowers, after dipping each, they all had a different pose, if you will, when i placed them on the drying surface. one was super upright and perky, one was sort of flat and the third was in between. i loved that about them.
allow to dry.
