Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Materials for Wire Flowers: *For wire, we are using 16 gauge steel ‘rebar tie wire’ that can be found at any hardware store for about $9! It takes a little muscle to bend, but it keeps its shape nicely once finished and has a sleek black finish.
Detailed explanation-2: -A hook or shepherd’s crook is formed on one end of a wire. the straight end of the wire is poked into the center of the disc portion of the flower head. As it is pulled downward, the hook catches itself inside the flower to help support the flower and strengthen and lengthen the stem.
