Try this. It looks like a good thread with the recipe and general instructions.

found this on the internet.
Gelatin flowers

Ingredients:

Gelatin - 2 tbsp

Boiling water - 1/4 - 1/2 cup

White metal barbed wire

An S-lon tube 3 inches in diameter and 6 inches long

Method

First make the petal frame. Put the metal wire around the S-lon tube and make the petals Now put gelatin into a cup and pour boiling water into it. mix and make a thick gelatin mixture. Add the food colouring and mix. Let the gelatin mixture come down to luke warm temperature.

Then dip the petal frame into it, hold it until the excess gelatin drips into the gelatin mixture. Fix the petals on a regiform until it gets dried. The gelatin petal might melt if the gelatin mixture is either too hot or watery. The mixture should be of luke warm temperature. The petal gets completely dried within half an hour. You can also make leaves using the same method, and turn out a beautiful glazed flower arrangement for the season.

Ummm--

What's an S-lon tube
What's a regiform?
Barbed wire like is used for cattle fences?

Not picturing this--anybody have a photo?

Oh sorry. I just cut and pasted. I know they mean thin white coated wire. Not sure, but I think they just want you to use a shaped tube to give you the petal shape. Regi form is just styra foam. Hope this helps.
