Ligth Flowers
This project is an oil candle, I wanted to give it a special touch and make it in the shape of a plant and as a final detail, light as a fruit.
Supplies
-bike wheel rods.
- Copper wire.
-Epoxy glue.
-Conical lids of any product.
-A container for the oil.
-Kitchen towels or cotton thread.
-Cooking or aromatic oil.
The Branches of the Plant
The first step is to bend the rods to create the branches of the plant. The rods I use in this case are from bicycle wheels. With two tweezers we bend the rod little by little until we get the circular shape we want, as seen in the video; I did three. Now we wrap the wire around as seen in the video, this can be done in the way you prefer.
Leaves
To make the leaves we take a piece of copper wire, for a 3.5 cm sheet we will use approximately 32 cm of copper wire.
After making the circle with the copper wire, we join two parts of the circle, crossing it in the middle with a copper wire, as seen in the image; After this we begin to make all the branches of the leaf with the design that we want, as seen in the image.
Cocoons
For the cocoons we are going to need small caps that have a conical shape and we introduce the nut of the bicycle wheel rod to them to be able to fasten the cocoon to the rod.
For the cocoon we will use conical caps and we will wrap the copper wire around these as seen in the images.
Now we join the leaves, the bud and the branch, as seen in the video.
Light Fruits
then we join the three branches to the container that we chose to contain the oil, as seen in the video.
My camera is not very good, it does not record in high quality, but the result is incredible and serves to decorate any environment. Thank you very much for your attention, this is my plant with light fruits.
