One package green stem wire, one packagedark green wax and one package light green wax. Use large glass headed molding pin for molding leaves into shape ; rose leafmold, large or medium size, according to the color of rose you are a small hook at the end of one stem wire; then with a narrow strip ofgreen sheet wax wind the stem very neatly. Cover the hook with a small piece of wax, which has been doubled three orfour times, so as to form a small ball. This ball should be the same color as therose you intend making. Below the first ball make one slightly smaller, whichis covered with green wax for the calyx after the rose is complete. Now cutten leaves the size and shape of this * #^ ROSE LEAF PETAL PATTERN. With the head of the glass pin roll them cup shaped, being careful to dip thepin in water occasionally, to keep it from adhering to the wax. Now beginplacing them on the stem ; roll the straight part of the first leaf around the bot-tom part of the ball made on the hook. The wax is very pliable, and no difficulty will be experienced in giving theleaves the natural shape and position of a rose leaf. Continue until you haveplaced five on the stem, letting the sides of each leaf lap the one over the other,this gives the rose a rich double appearance. The five remaining leaves may now be placed on the stem ; the curved orscalloped part of each leaf a veiy little below the first row of leaves. Now cutten leaves a size larger than pattern ; roll them in the same manner as the firstten, and place five of
