    I wondering if any knows where I could find some wheat grain on its stem when it has flowered. I'm looking for it for costume jewellery. I hope I have explained myself.

    Flowered or seeded?

    I'm going to dress up as Worzel Gummidge, if you Google him and look at his eyebrows. That is what I'm looking for. I'm sorry I can't upload a pic of him. I hope this helps. Thanks

    It's a ear of wheat you need. Any tillage farmer would give you some. Some dried flower arrangements include it too.

    More likely to be barley as it has longer "hairs".

    Wurzel Gummage is depicted with wheat usually.

    How did you go from Worzel Gummidge to costume jewellery? When I read your post, I thought you were making something like silver jewellery using lost-wax casting.
