Artificial floral assembly with illumination

Abstract

The artificial floral assembly with illumination comprises a stem backbone, electrical light fixture wiring, a flower bloom, and a leaf structure as well as an optional stem interface. The stem backbone may have wire, electrical wiring, polyethylene sheet material, cloth reinforced adhesive tape, caulking, and fabric. The flower bloom may have wire rings joined together at a center point, fabric covering the wire rings, and strands of wire dangling from the center point. The wire rings may be attached to a metal collar which slides over the top of the stem backbone/light fixture.

   (c) making a flower bloom, the steps of making the flower bloom comprising 
 1. forming a plurality of rings of wire, with a center point connecting the rings, and with dangling wire strands falling below the center point,  
 2. separating the plurality of rings of wire so that each of the wire rings is positioned around the center point,  
 3. covering each of the wire rings with a fourth fabric, the fourth fabric having an end area,  
 4. connecting the end areas of the fourth fabric covering each of the wire rings, and  
 5. painting the fourth fabric; and  
   (d) making a stem backbone, the steps comprising 
 1. cutting wire into segments, the segments comprising many locations,  
 2. wrapping a flower bloom around one location of the wire segment,  
 3. wrapping a leaf around a second location of the wire segment,  
 4. wrapping plastic material around the wire segment,  
 5. wrapping tape around the plastic material covering the wire segment,  
 6. placing the adhesive material over the tape along the wire segment,  
 7. wrapping a fifth fabric over the adhesive material, and  
 8. letting the wire segment set for 1 to 24 hours.
