WAX FLOWER

MODELLING

ebook

"God might have made the earth bring forth enough for great and small,

The oak tree and the cedar tree without a flower at all.

"Then wherefore, wherefore, were they made?

"To comfort man—to whisper hope,

Whene'er his faith is dim;

For whoso careth for the flowers

Will much more care for HIM."

... learn the beautiful art of making wax flowers ! ...

HOW TO COPY FROM NATURE.

To take the pattern of a natural flower, you must remove the petals carefully, sorting out how many there are of an equal size. Take the shape of one out of each set, in the following manner: Place the petal upon a sheet of writing paper, holding it firmly to the paper with the point of the fore finger of the left hand. Take a large brush containing a very little colour and pass it round the edge. The exact form will be left upon the paper without tearing the edges of the petal, even though it were unusually fragile. Place the pattern upon the dull side of the wax, and as the grain runs the length of the same, cut each petal accordingly, for the wax takes the paint much better in that direction.

What is an Ebook ??

An Ebook or 'electronic book' is something you read on screen instead of on paper. It is the Media equivalent to a conventional printed book. You can store and/or load on a CD-R or CD-RW Ebooks and select and print the pages you want, at any time. All you need to view this Ebook PDF file is Adobe Acrobat Reader, which comes with most computers. If your computer does not have this, just go to the Adobe Acrobat Reader website and you can download it for FREE. Our Ebooks are mailed to you on a CD ! You can print out these 8.5x11, black and white pages over and over again. (If you are purchasing one of our Coloring Ebooks for your children, they can select the pages they prefer, you can print the pages out over and over for them and they can even have coloring parties with their friends !)Just make sure your printer is set for clear and crisp copies.
