When asked about the time it takes to craft a silk rose, my response is, "Anywhere from a few hours to several days."
Every silk rose has its unique personality. Some roses are cooperative and come together seamlessly, petal by petal, much like baking a dessert from a trusted recipe. These roses can typically be completed in 4 to 6 hours.
On the other hand, there are roses with temperamental and unpredictable natures, reminiscent of young French cabaret actresses.
These roses insist on trying on petal after petal, requiring them to be made from luxurious, glossy, and delicate silks. Some roses even have the audacity to demand different coloring or petal styles, or petal shapes... It can be quite the challenge to meet the high expectations of these demanding roses.

My name is Elena. I have worked as a silk flower artist since 2010 when I discovered that a simple piece of fabric can be transferred into a realistic silk flower. I have created custom silk flowers for individuals and companies, published almost 50 tutorials, taught individuals and groups of students. I designed every silk flower for the New York Millinery collections 2014-2017 with an extraordinary milliner Anya Caliendo. You can find my silk flowers in the permanent "Cutting Edge" Expo at The National Museum Of Scotland.

I vividly recall crafting my first silk flower back in June 2010. I owned a beautiful silk dress that I wanted to enhance with a brooch or a flower. It was then that I stumbled upon some vintage books filled with patterns and photographs of silk flowers, which sparked my curiosity and desire to try this craft. Despite not having the right materials, such as proper silk, dyes, or tools, I was eager to dive right in.
My first attempt at a silk flower was a soft, wire-free version. I used my children's coloring set to dye it and I stitched the petals together. However, attaching it to my dress proved to be a challenge, and the end result was far from what I had envisioned.
Since then, I have spent countless hours learning how to mix dyes, create different flower parts, shape with flower making tools, and assemble. Along the way, I made many mistakes and faced frustration, but with the guidance of my first teacher and my unwavering passion for this art form, I was able to overcome each obstacle.

Today, I'm excited to announce my new upcoming one-to-one online training for beginners in silk flower art, which is starting on March 12th, 2024

Over the course of four weeks, I'll be your personal teacher, guiding you through every step of the journey.
