I agree with Padsta, quite stunning, would love to know what they’re made from and how you did it please. Ian

Thank you, much appreciated. I make them from copper but can be made from any sheet metal really. I have been freehanding the templates for a while but if you google copper rose there are a few templates to choose from and its a pretty simple process. Cut out the shapes, hammer in the pattern, stack them and then shape them with some pliers

Beautiful work - something I'm definitely going to give a go!

You make it sound so simple but I bet in real life it's somewhat different

Thanks for the inspiration! Made a perfect birthday present for my mum. I mixed it up a little with aluminium leaves at the bottom. I followed the instructable one. It really is easier than it looks for anyone wanting to give it a go. Mrs French has already ordered a bouquet of them
