Assembly Steps:

- Stack the Petals:
- Place the big petal set onto the stem.
- Add the small petal set on top.
- Secure everything with the top cap piece.
- Tighten the Bottom Bolt to hold the assembly together. Ensure that the petals overlap each other properly.
- Shape the Petals:
- Use a hair dryer on the highest heat setting to bend the smaller petals upwards.

- Repeat this process for the bigger petal set to complete the flower shape.
