Choose Your Ronghua Adventure
To help you enjoy a smooth (and fun!) journey into the world of Ronghua, we’ve sorted all our kits into four levels based on their difficulty and time commitment. Check it out!
What Else May I Need?
Alongside your Ronghua DIY Kit, the most important addition is a Ronghua Toolkit — especially if you don’t already have suitable crafting tools.
For most of our Ronghua DIY Kits, we offer two options: “DIY Kit Only” and “DIY Kit + Toolkit.”
If you’re new to Ronghua, we recommend choosing the option with the toolkit. All of our Ronghua toolkits are the same across different kits, so you only need one toolkit set for all future projects.
👉 You can check the details of the current Ronghua Toolkit here.
Here’s what else may help:
Ronghua Stand (Recommended, Not Essential)
A Ronghua stand is a very helpful tool for stretching and brushing the silk evenly, but it’s not essential for beginners.
You can easily achieve great results using creative alternatives, such as a stable drawer, table edge, or other household setups. Many of our beginners start this way and still create beautiful flowers.
👉 We’ve made a short tutorial showing alternative methods here: Watch the video
Hairspray or White Crafting Glue (Essential – Setting Solution)
The liquid used to dip and set the silk petals is called the setting solution. There are two easy options:
① Hairspray (Best Option)
From our crafting experience, regular hairspray gives the most consistent, convenient, and beginner-friendly results.
Due to airline shipping restrictions, we’re unable to include spray products — but you can simply use any normal hairspray you already have at home.
② DIY Setting Solution
You can also mix white crafting glue with water (or alcohol) at a ratio of 1 : 1.15–1 : 1.2.

Magnesium Powder or (Simply) a Small Piece of Tissue Paper (Highly Recommended)
Attaching copper wire to silk is often the trickiest step for beginners.
While experienced crafters can usually do this directly by hand, we highly recommend using:
Anti-slip powder (magnesium powder), or
A tiny piece of tissue paper — simple, but surprisingly effective!
This small trick dramatically improves grip and control, making the process much easier and more enjoyable.
👉 We demonstrate this method in our tutorial video (from 5:28): Watch the video
Bamboo Trimming Base with Professional Tapering Scissors (Optional, Helpful for Advanced Finishing)
The bamboo base/cup helps stabilise your hand and scissors while trimming and tapering silk strips.
The No.7 Professional Trimming Scissors are one of those rare finds that can truly handle long, thin silk strips, which are notoriously tricky to taper smoothly.
Not mandatory for beginners, but very helpful if you want to refine your technique over time.

Customer service 10/10 really love the kits soo addicting!! They will give you more then enough materials to practice.
I only wish the tutorials would be a little bit more clear. But beside that really love the company❤️
I made up this beautiful kit during Lansei China's visit to London. It is a great kit for beginners as the petals are pre prepared so you just concentrate on the petal trimming, shaping and putting it all together. I can definitely recommend as a starter kit or perhaps a kit to complete more quickly for a special gift.
I have tried lots of different crafts but nothing like ronghua before, I've really enjoyed trying my hand at something new. The video tutorial has been very helpful, and while it's not something I am immediately good at (it will definitely take time to master), but thats part of the joy. The team at Lansei China have been great, they sent my order very fast and kindly refunded a workshop when I was unable to attend, I would definitely recommend this company if you are interested in trying ronghua
I am really enjoying making silk flowers. It is very therapeutic even though some stages are a little fiddly but I’m getting better each time. The end product is so worth it. I will say that having experimented with cheaper silks, it’s worth spending that little bit more as the silks from Lansei are far superior and the end product definitely looks more realistic.
Beautiful item!
Lansei China is truly exceptional! Their Ronghua silk flower designs are exquisite, showcasing extraordinary creativity, delicate craftsmanship and a deep appreciation for traditional Chinese artistry. Every creation reflects elegance, passion and remarkable attention to detail. Their professionalism, commitment to quality and inspiring designs make them truly stand out. A beautiful art form brought to life with exceptional skill and dedication. Highly recommended!
Amazing and beautiful artist and work!
Maravilloso producto, la mejor calidad en todo aspecto, colores hermosos. Muy feliz con mi compra. Gracias por el obsequio!!
My first Rhongua project (irises) but not my last - I ordered three more kits, and have started on my second project - sunflowers.
This is a finicky hobby, even as an experienced fiber artist, there is a learning curve! My second set of irises definitely came out better than the first, although even my first attempt came out beautifully. I really appreciate that enough material is included to make a whole second pair of irises, plus plenty for mistakes/waste.
For the fine detail oriented that appreciate a challenge, you gotta try this!
While the video is great, I wish some written reference was included. The card that came with my later kits is very helpful, especially in combination with the video. More subtitles in the video that identify the details would be helpful too.
The Lansei China team came to London to show off their craft and I decided to give it a go since I had something later to do in London that day. It was a lot of fun to make my Rose Myrtle and I was happy with the result. I can see a lot of potential to make very interesting designs with it. The ones they had on show looked amazing in person. I got the Purple Iris kit to try at home, along with the toolkit and stand. I also got some archival glue and distilled water to use in place of their recommendation of hairspray as I think that will degrade less.
I haven't actually had a chance to try it out yet as I've been quite busy lately, but I would recommend people give one of their easier kits a go to see if you enjoy it. You could get the tools yourself, but getting them in the cute wrapped package is convenient. They also provide PTFE Fibreglass Tape to put on the hair straighteners to prevent scratching from the annealed copper wire, I looked into the tape they provided and both the tape and adhesive should be safe to use with the heat of the iron.
They did also provide a small pan of watercolour paint for use with the Purple Iris. I am a little cautious to use unmarked paint as I do not know if it contains chemicals such as cadmium or if it is sensitizing, so I can't verify if it's safe to wear. I am sure it's not a big deal in reality, I'm just a bit of a safety freak. I'm sure even without the small streaks of paint I will be happy with my creation. After completing this project myself start to finish, my plan would be to start designing my own creations.
The people involved clearly care about what they're doing; Jing and Tang were very nice to meet. I wish them well with promoting their craft.
Ronghua DIY Kit | Red Plum Blossom
I've ordered a couple of kits, Purple Magnolia and Birdie in Spring from Lansei China. I also ordered the essential tool kit, bamboo trimming cup and extra silk. I am very pleased with my purchases. The kits are excellent quality and have plenty supplies to complete the flowers. Kits arrive with clear step-by-step instructions and the website has complete instruction videos for all of the kits.
Twisting the wires is the hardest part of creating the flowers. I purchased some climbers chalk and was able to easily twist the wires.
I truly enjoy creating these beautiful flowers and will purchase additional kits in the future.
I love the Lansei kits and equipment, and the results are beautiful.
I have completed a few kits now and I’m hooked! It’s so therapeutic (if a bit fiddly at times)
Everything from start to finish was amazing. The carefully wrapped package, the high quality materials and the detailed tutorials contributed to making my first experience with ronghua a pleasant journey. It's a time consuming process but a rewarding one nevertheless. And remember: don't get disappointed early on, trust the process and your hard work!!! I'll definitely order more in the future.
