It's so easy and produces beautiful blooms, even for a beginner like me. However, I have problem doing the stamens.. Can anybody share their suggestions? Thanks!

Try blowing up a small balloon or fill with a little water and lay it on an egg carton. Place makeup sponges or cotton balls to separate the petals. Use cornstarch if needed.
