Flower Sculptures

On the left I made a trellis for my two berry bushes planted at the base of each side.
 
These are a few heart shaped trellises I made from some solid flat bar I had lying around.
 
On the left I made a flower sculpture with 3 tea candle holders I added I had left over from my last pipe railing job. And on the right is a heart shaped plant stand.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Above is a scrapped bed frame and below is the big sculpture I'm bending it into. This will be giant flower sculpture with 10 leaves and one big bright flower in the center. I bend all my metal by hand with two pegs and a lever.
 
 
 
 

The metal flower sculptures below are all between $50 and $65. They are hand bent and will last hundreds of years. These are without paint to promote a rust finish as most of my customers prefer. I'll make several more tomorrow and paint them with bright colors. These are ready now but they will not last long so if you want any delivered to Northern Delaware in time for Christmas I'm making the trip later this week.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
My latest and new favorite sculpture.
 
 
 
Much of this flower sculpture I made from jobs where I removed old railing and installed new. You can see the twisted pickets. In fact the entire sculpture is old railings except the flowers. I bent all those by hand with two pegs and a lever.
 
 
This is largest version of these type of sculptures to date.
$1500
 
 
Still trying to settle on colors for this sculpture.
 
This is the next generation of flowers for my sculptures.
 
 
I bend all these pieces of scroll work by hand, one at a time.

This is a solid steel face trellis. I planted miniature climbing white roses on each side. My plan is to have them climb up to cover the top so I can trim it to look like white hair. This trellis weighs a few hundred pounds. While I'll not sell this one I would love to make another. I have a program that lets me take a photograph of someones face and turn it into something I can bend. I could do any kind of face or hair.

 
The next pictures are of garden projects I am hoping someone will have me fabricate for them.
