I have created this wondrous fabulous flower (oops I
actually copied it from nature) from a real miniature daffodil from my mother’s
garden. As the original flower came from my mothers garden and as when you pick
a daffodil it never flowers again, my mum has laid claim to this for her self
as a birthday present. I’m pretty sure that makes quite a few little presents
she has had off me but I’ll let her off (just this once).
So to create this, I took the real flower from the garden
and using silver clay and a very time consuming delicate process which had many
stages and took a fair bit of time and patience I created a the exact copy.
I have attached a bail at the back so it can be worn as a pendant, it could also be worn as a brooch and with a matching pair it could be worn as earrings.
I am very happy with the final result, and as this was my
first attempt at something of this nature I think it turned out very well. It
was a little practice for one of my future ventures in to wedding flower
jewellery so brides can keep a memento of their bridal flowers. More about that
soon…
