A chic idea to present single flowers decoratively: Test tubes are wrapped in soft woollen Felt cloth, the bundle is held together by coloured wire and stable Raffia . The colourful quilling flowers are an additional eye-catcher.
It's that simple:
Cut a strip from Felt sheet in the size 17 x 45 cmNext, draw ten 3 cm wide strips on the Felt , with 1 cm distance to the edge. Mark 1 cm between each strip. When this is done, the felt strip is cut off 1.5 cm after the last strip
Now mark the cuts for the test tubes within the strips. Alternate 2 and 3 cuts per strip.
Now cut open the markings with pointed handicraft scissors and put the test tubes through
Roll up the felt strip evenly and secure the bundle with rubber bands.
You can wrap paper wire, decorative aluminium wire or natural bast around the bundle as you wish and twist or knot the ends well. You should hide the wire ends behind a Test tube
At the end you can glue small quilling flowers with hot glue, put big quilling flowers or real flowers into the test tubes and fill them up with decorative gravel.

Make Quilling Flowers
Colourful flowers wrapped from narrow Paper strips - from Karen-Marie-Klip comes this great variation of the classic Paper-Quilling. With the right Paper strips and the right tools you can create a blooming flower meadow in no time at all.
Here's how it works:
Put a narrow Paper strips into Quilling pin and roll it up tight. The end is fixed with paper glue and you can remove the twisted flower center from quilling rod.
Glue along the edge of the wide Paper strips tape-Ribbon and fold it twice. Next, cut the Paper strips every 3-4 mm until you reach the-Ribbon tape and unfold the whole thing again.

Now remove the protective foil of the tape and you can stick the frosted Paper-strip around the middle of the flower
With the help of a folding leg the fringes are formed outwards
Then carefully press the centre of the flower from behind with the blunt end of the folding leg towards the front. Now the whole thing must be fixed with paper glue.
When the paper glue is dry, you can cut the aluminium wire and fix it behind the flower with hot glue.
