Pour a little of the dust onto some kitchen paper and using a medium soft brush take up a small amount of the dust. As you can always add more colour but not take it away we usually now brush a few strokes across the kitchen paper to only leave a tiny amount on the brush - this avoids brushing streaks of colour across the flowers. Keep adding the colour until content with the result. We also now have a selection of lustre sprays in pearl gold blue and green.

We allow a 14-day period for any unwanted goods to be returned to us in their original condition. This is in line with all domestic web or telesales policies. This is a fantastic showy flower which would look stunning on its own in a vase or as part of a seasonal arrangement.
