Icon4 Half Dozen Miniature Copper Roses (Non-Honda Related)

I made these all by hand for my girlfriend, i thought I'd show them off a little. What do you think? There was no welding, or epoxy used to hold anything together. Just the folding of metal.

Looks good! A little polish could probably make it 'pop' a little better

It's actually not supposed to be polished, i hammered all the copper so that it would look more weathered very rustic.

thanks for the positive comments tho guys!

Haha, agree.


Here is a rose that I made, it is painted to make it look like a rose... otherwise it just looked like scrap metal. The six that you made are really nice, so is the box that you made to hold them. Nice work.

Nice work, I've never thought of doing them in copper. The color looks great.

If you place a couple of hammer blows off the top edge of the petals, I bet they would draw nice and thin, just to gain a little realism.
