How to make a lily kusudama

*** WARNING *** to all dark eyed origafundamentalists contains some explicit footage...
My first attempt to turn Classic Lilies (or Irises) into a Kusudama. I used the cuboctahedron frame as a basis (12 lilies) and turned them into double lilies (another 12 req'd). I guess you could fill the centre of the squares again with 6*2 lilies, but I left it at the 12 doubles...

I made 12 lilies, I watched this video for nearly 30 times but I did'nt understand how to piece my lilies together:( he is only talking abour squares and triangels. I wish he could show it more detailed

just google "cuboctahedron" that is the structure you are making with a lily on each tip (or vertex as those tips are called) ; )
