  1. Using a decorating bag fitted with a Tip 104, hold the bag with the wide end of the tip touching the surface of the Flower Nail, keeping the narrow end slightly above the surface.
  2. Begin the first row of five petals. Pipe first petal moving tip 104 in a jiggling up-and-down motion.
  3. Continue with four more petals, slightly overlapping the previous petal.
  4. Angle tip up slightly. Finish with one or two center petals at top. Let dry.
  5. Hint: Make the petals of this richly textured flower using a tight up-and-down motion. Piping on the apple blossom/primrose template from our flower nail templates set will help guide you to proper petal position.
