Very cute, quick and easy! Any suggestion for attaching a mount or stem to use it in a wreath or floral arrangement?
Curious .
Kat: Thank you! To attach a stem, you can use a thicker wire (about 20 or 18 gage) and twist it below the head or around the body a few times. The dragonfly is lightweight, so that should work. Good luck!
