The first 1000 people to use the link will get a free trial of Skillshare Premium Membership: It took me two days to make these lol. I first knew about Ronghua in 2018 from the popular Cdrama ’Story of Yanxi Palace’. It’s an ancient Chinese craft dating back to the Tang Dynasty for making beautiful floral or animal-shaped accessories out of silk threads. I’ve always wanted to try making Ronghua, but it was so much more difficult than I thought. It requires a lot of skills and practice. I have so much respect for the artisans who are keeping the traditional art alive. I studied the making process of Ronghua on a Chinese social media app called ’Xiaohongshu小红书’ aka RED. Unfortunately, there isn’t much information about Ronghua in the western media. These are some articles I found during my research if you are interested in learning more about it: ‣ ‣ ‣ ✦ EARLY ACCESS & EXCLUSIVE CONTENT ‣ ✦ STAY IN TOUCH Shop ‣ Art Instagram ‣ Personal Instagram ‣ TikTok ‣ Weibo ‣ Bilibili ‣ RED (Xiaohongshu) ‣ ✦ CONTACT For Business Inquiries & Collaborations: @ ✦ MUSIC Epidemic Sound Music - ✦ TIMESTAMPS 0:00 - Skillshare 1:09 - Hello spring 1:48 - Splitting 3:01 - Organizing 3:18 - Brushing 3:42 - Wrapping 4:16 - Twisting 4:42 - Shaping 5:12 - Flattening 5:57 - Assembling 6:46 - Modeling 7:15 - Making leaves 9:51 - Making butterfly 11:33 - Finished FTC ‣ This video is sponsored by Skillshare. #ronghua #craft
