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.

Fabulous add on kit with really useful products and tools to help with flower making. Fabulous.
Fabulous kits and great service from this company. Looking forward to having a big crafting session very soon. Having completed other kits I know that I will get hours of joy making these flowers. Thanks.
Cute and sweet little gift!
I am very pleased with my purchase! All the items that came with my kit were good quality and feel like an excellent value for the price. I used my kit, and while the process is tricky, the video tutorials online made the steps clear and doable for a first-timer.
The Ronghua toolkit was perfect! The videos are easy to follow. With a little practice I was able to create beautiful flowers. The kit has enough material for a few flowers, so plenty to practice with. I highly recommend the starter kit!
I’m so greatfull that I found lansei china there lovley and great
Lansei china is such a great company i love all the support I got from them and that they were happy to awnser any questions that I had
Decided to give this a try after seeing the ads on instagram. The first attempt was challenging and a little frustrating but once I got set up better and practiced I’ve gotten progressively better and found it to be a very meditative hobby. My coworkers and friends were amazed when I showed them my latest creations! Now I’m hooked!
When I let them know I never got my order, they were quick to investigate. They found out it was lost by the carrier, and were very quick to ship a new one and let me know how long before I should expect it. They were very pleasant to deal with and I am excited to learn more about this craft!
I have made several ronghua using Lansei's kits - the instructions are very detailed and helpful, and I love learning how to do this beautiful craft! I will definitely make more!
Kits have everything you need to complete the full project (assuming you already have the tool kit). The video/blog directions are clear. The projects themselves are both easier and harder than I expected - the process is easy to do, but getting it looking its best takes the learning of skills and artistry. A great craft for beginners to make some truly pretty things - and for a master to create some astonishing works of art.
Your price point is absolutely perfect for the tools you receive - most companies based in America would charge the same and only include the silk thread.
Fantastic quality!
The materials are excellent quality and the tutorials do a fantastic job. Ronghua is certainly a challenging craft that improves with practice but the website clearly breaks down the levels into a manageable course. I love this new craft!
