Daffodil Mothers Day Wax Carving Workshop | Stirchley
Cut Flower Carving is back! What better bloom to start the year's workshops with than the Daffodil for Mother's Day weekend.
Six textured petals dance around a crinkled trumpet, home to three peeping sweet wire stamen. They are wondering if Spring has arrived.
A wonderful flower to carve - molten texture, petal cutting and crinkling to look forward to. Bring Mum or carve a beautiful bloom for her favourite pot.

Carved By You - Finished By Me
After you have carved your flower in wax, it is cast into your choice of brass or silver in the Jewellery Quarter.
I will then add a short, medium or long stem to make it ornamental or turn it in to a brooch, ring, or pendant.
