How to create petals?
Activate your chosen color (preferably a darker shade) with a round brush. Load your petal brush with a main color (usually white). Lightly wipe the tip to remove excess paint, then add your darker color to the tip. Press the brush down like a dot to form a petal. You can test the first petal on your hand. Repeat to build your flower. The more pressure you apply, the larger the petal will be.
How to choose your size?
The #2 is ideal for smaller flowers. The #4 creates larger petals and more visible designs.
| Size | Hair length | Hair width | Total length |
| #2 | 12 mm | 4 mm | 18.5 cm |
| #4 | 14 mm | 5 mm | 19 cm |
🧼 To keep your brushes in top condition, clean them with brush soap or a gentle soap. Rinse thoroughly, let them dry flat or bristles down. Once dry, store them in a brush case. Your brushes will thank you! 💚
