October 24, 201114 yr A set of 8 Napkin Rings. Each ring is forged from a single piece of 3/8" round bar 13" long. Finish is brass brush and clear enamel. Went into town this morning to buy some fancy cloth napkins for the photo's. went several places. I got a kick out of the sales lady's expressions when I asked for help. Guess they aren't used to having a 280 pound man in bibs and work boots coming in looking for fancy napkins. Never did find the napkins but I got a good chuckle...
October 24, 201114 yr Those really look nice John. I'm going to have to learn that Russian rose. There are so many places it could be used.
October 24, 201114 yr WOW!! I love the way they look. That brass finish really sets them off. Thanks for sharing, John. :)
October 24, 201114 yr They look GREAT! Try antique stores for nice napkins... Irish linen shops too. Craig's list also.
October 24, 201114 yr Those came out stunning. I really enjoy the one pc rose - do a lot of candle holders in them. Have you tied a wood stain on steel that has been wire brushed - gives a really nice finish and subtle color tint.
February 23, 201214 yr Very nice, I am going to try this soon. So its just 3/8 round stock and then on the end you made a russian rose? Also i have been brass brushing some other roses lately, but they don't turn out this deep in color. Do you have any suggestions on how I van obtain that deep bronze color?
February 23, 201214 yr what little stunners!!! so cute! how do you do your leaf edges like that? Really think theyre sweet :)
