Industrial Blooms, The Ultimate Shade Flower
by
Kelly
I was browsing a popular art mall and saw these in a smaller scale, made with water faucet valves. I thought I could do these in a large model using industrial shut off valves and farm implements.
We used conduit EMT, couplings, concrete, and spray paint. It helps to have a pipe bender to make the stems look more realistic.
We added the smaller faucet handles to make the flower centers and some smaller blooms down below and planted them in the ground using concrete.
We have purchased many more of the flower heads and plan to make a few more bouquets soon!
We hope you have been inspired to go out on a limb... be different!
