Flatback Half Pearls | 9mm Sunflower | White AB | 25g Pack - Card & Rakhi

The 9mm sunflower sits between the fine 7mm and the bolder 11mm, which makes it the easiest of the four to handle while still reading clearly as a flower. A raised pearl centre inside a beaded collar, finished white with an AB coating that flickers along the rim, and a flat back that glues level on card, MDF and resin. Supplied in a 25 g pack.

Specifications

Ideal For

• Rakhi and festive craft
• Card makers and invitation designers
• Scrapbookers and journal decorators
• Small business gift packaging
• Beginners who find the 7mm flower too fiddly

Perfect for

• Ring a rakhi centre with a circle of small flowers
• Run a floral border along a card or an invitation
• Cluster into a bouquet corner on a scrapbook layout
• Trim a gift bag or a ribbon tail
• Decorate a keepsake box lid

Compatibility

Works with: craft glue, clear jewellery adhesive, card, cardstock, MDF, wood and resin surfaces.

Pairs well with: rakhi making materials, where the flowers finish a threaded band without extra assembly.

Not suitable for: stringing or threading, since there is no hole; and heat-based work, since no temperature rating is verified.

Before You Buy

• The pack is sold by weight, so the piece count varies and is not stated.
• These are glue-on and have no adhesive backing.
• There is a small moulded dimple at the centre of the dome. It is a production mark, not a threading hole.
• Use a thin ring of glue. Too much rises into the beaded collar and dulls the detail.

How to Use

1. Dry lay the flowers to set the spacing before any glue goes down.
2. Spread a thin ring of glue matching the flower footprint.
3. Lower each flower straight down onto the ring.
4. Press around the rim rather than the centre so the collar beds in flat.
5. Leave flat until the glue has set.

You will Need

• instant and super glue

Frequently Asked Questions

What size is this flower?
Each one measures 9 mm across including the beaded rim. The 25 g pack is sold by weight, so the piece count is not fixed.

How is this different from the 11mm sunflower?
Two millimetres smaller. The 9mm suits a repeating border or a ring around a centre stone, while the 11mm carries a card front on its own.

Can I glue these onto a rakhi thread?
They glue onto a firm base such as an MDF rakhi cutout. Gluing straight onto loose thread is unreliable, so fix the base first.

Do they have sticky backs?
No. The back is flat and plain, so use craft glue or a clear jewellery adhesive.
