how to singe silk flowere
I don't know if your silk flowers are actually that fiber, a blend, or all synthetic. If either of the last two, I have been able to cut shapes with a heat tool that I got at Michael's. It may go by several names, stencil burner being one. I use the stencil burner tip, and work on a piece of glass. Keep the tool moving smoothly to avoid blobs of melted material. Good ventilation is a must. Hope this helps.
