Step 3Valentines Tentacle 2
inspired by a comment from KahlZun I thought that tentacles holding flowers was a good idea.
The flowers were made by taking a 1cm ball of clay and spliiting it into 7 equal sections. Each of these sections were then rolled into a ball and flattened between the fingers.
Gently flatten a small section of the disk so as the make the circle slightly wider on one side (a bit like a guitar pick)
Roll the first disk into a over upon itself so it forms a little spiral and becomes the central bud for the rose.
Wrap the other disks around the central bud continuing on the spiral shape and making the top edge of each petal slightly longer and thinner than the previous.
Once finished the flower is finished it will have formed a stem that you can wrap the end of the tentacle around. Add the flower to a standard tentacle shape and bake as usual. (photos to follow once the wife isnt looking)

Thank you for sharing, it's a very original and easy to make idea (and you can do so many other things with it!!)
Nice to know I'm inspiring!
