This step is very simple: Fill the bowl up to the rim with water and put it in the freezer. Do not worry if a small part of the rose sticks out, we will cut it off later.

Now wait until the water is completely frozen. How long this takes probably depends on your freezer and the size of the bowl. I waited approximately 24 hours. (If you are running low on time, while waiting you may start on the wood, see steps 7 and 8.)

And please, resist the temptation to prod and check the ice every half an hour. I did it, and once almost dislodged the rose.

When your water is completely frozen, it should look somewhat like on the second picture.
