Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of dried flower handicrafts, and in particular to a method for making a three-dimensional dried water lily flower handicraft. Background Art

[0002] Water lily is an aquatic herbaceous flower of the genus Nymphaea, family Nymphaeaceae. It has bright colors and elegant posture and is deeply loved by people.

[0003] Dried flowers, also known as dried flowers, refer to natural fresh flowers that have been dehydrated, color-preserved, and shaped to make a plant product with long-lasting ornamental value. Dried flowers have both the natural characteristics of fresh flowers and durability that they do not have. Compared with flat dried flowers, three-dimensional dried flowers retain the original shape of the plant and are more beautiful and ornamental.

[0004] Water lilies have rich colors and beautiful flowers, but fresh cut flowers will quickly wilt and lose their ornamental value when out of water, and their shelf life is short. They will also close at night, which makes it difficult to meet the consumer's consumption needs. Currently, there are very few three-dimensional dried water lily flower crafts on the market. This product can fill the market gap and solve the problem of short shelf life of fresh cut water lily flowers.

[0005] Dried roses on the market are directly glued to an opaque base because of their compact flower shape. However, water lilies are large and have a stretched flower shape. Gluing them directly to the base is not effective and cannot show the elegance and vigor of water lilies. Therefore, using a fixed column to "support" the water lilies can better show their beauty. Previously, the fixed columns used in the production were filled with desiccant or flower mud, which made the fixed columns non-transparent, lacking in beauty and failing to show the ethereal and pure characteristics of water lilies.

[0006] Previously, opaque hot-melt adhesive was used for bonding. After the hot-melt adhesive solidified, it turned opaque white and left obvious marks on the glassware, resulting in poor presentation and poor ornamental properties.

[0007] Therefore, a novel method for making dried water lily flower handicrafts is needed to solve the problems of poor presentation effect and poor sealing aesthetics of three-dimensional water lily flower handicrafts. Summary of the invention

[0008] The purpose of the invention is to provide a novel method for making a three-dimensional dried water lily flower handicraft, so as to solve the problems of poor presentation effect and poor sealing aesthetics of the existing method.

[0009] To achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0010] A method for making a three-dimensional dried water lily flower handicraft comprises the following steps:

[0011] (1) Fixing the acrylic column: Use an adhesive UV shadowless adhesive to bond the fixed column to the middle of the base, and irradiate it with an ultraviolet lamp for 0.1 to 2 minutes, preferably 1 minute to fix it;

[0012] (2) Fixing the three-dimensional dried water lily flower: fix the completely dried three-dimensional dried water lily flower in the middle position above the fixing column with hot melt glue, and wait for 0.1 to 5 minutes, preferably 1 minute, for the hot melt glue to solidify;

[0013] (3) Install the glass cover: Tilt the glass cover carefully over one side of the dried flower and gently pinch the other side of the dried flower into the glass cover;

[0014] (4) Fixing the glass cover: Use an adhesive UV shadowless adhesive to bond the glass cover to the base, and irradiate with an ultraviolet lamp for 10 to 20 minutes, preferably 15 minutes to fix.

[0015] Preferably, the base in step (1) is made of transparent glass, with a cylindrical opening on the top, the opening diameter is slightly smaller than the bottom diameter, and a relatively flat area extends outward from the bottom. The fixing column is made of transparent acrylic material, and has disc-shaped connecting structures on the top and bottom. The diameter of the connecting structure with the water lily dried flower on the top is larger than that on the other side, which can better fix the dried flower. The height of the fixing column is 1 to 2 times, preferably 1.5 times, of the height of the three-dimensional dried water lily flower. At this ratio, the overall viewing effect of the handicraft is the best.

[0016] Preferably, the dried flowers and the fixed column bonding body in the step (2) are made of highly transparent hot melt adhesive, which has high transparency after drying. The three-dimensional dried water lily flowers are made of dried flowers with well-maintained flower colors and well-stretched flower shapes. When bonding, pick them up and observe from under the transparent base to align the center of the dried flower stem with the center of the fixed column.

[0017] Preferably, in step (3), when putting the dried flowers into the glass cover, the hands should be kept dry and the operation should be quick to prevent the dried flowers from absorbing water and getting damp. The glass cover is a spherical transparent glass cover. If the diameter of the dried water lily flower is N cm, the diameter of the glass cover is greater than N+1 cm, and there is a cylindrical opening at the bottom, where N>0.

[0018] Preferably, in the step (4), the adhesive for bonding the glass cover and the base is a UV shadowless adhesive. When bonding, first use the adhesive to bond half a circle, irradiate with an ultraviolet lamp for 0.1 to 2 minutes, preferably 1 minute, until the glass cover and the base are fixed together, and then use the UV shadowless adhesive to bond the remaining half circle without leaving a gap in the middle. After bonding, irradiate with an ultraviolet lamp for 10 to 20 minutes, preferably 15 minutes, until they are completely fixed.

[0019] The invention has an ingenious concept and a reasonable structure. The transparent fixing column in the middle not only fixes the three-dimensional dried water lily in the container, but also has a "suspended" effect, which looks like a water lily stem and a water lily suspended in the container, reflecting the ethereal and noble characteristics of the water lily, and has a high ornamental value. When the components are bonded, UV shadowless glue is selected as the adhesive, and the high transparency and traceless characteristics of the shadowless glue are utilized to improve the aesthetics of the packaging. The method for making the three-dimensional dried water lily handicraft not only improves the utilization value of the water lily but also has great ornamental value.
