I had followed the Apartment Therapy instructions to the letter but my tufts were looking flat and blousey. Not at all like their ‘after’ shot. So I ripped it all out. [...]

Think the only solution to this is more experimentation, ie, trail and error! So far you’ve only made 1 error……..!

That teaser pic looks beautiful. I can’t imagine how frustrating that is for you. Hopefully this time will work much better. I really, really want to see how it comes out!
