Full description

In this workshop, participants have the opportunity to craft a timeless steel rose that will perpetually stay in bloom, defying the passage of time. The creative process begins with the preparation of intricately engraved petals, offering the freedom to express personal designs or heartfelt messages for the intended recipient.

Under the guidance of experienced instructors, participants delve into the art and science of MIG welding to skillfully attach the rose's petals to the stem. Using an open-flame torch, they shape each petal to their preference, transforming it from a partially open bud to a fully blossomed in-bloom state. This process is repeated until the creation of a complete and unique steel rose.

Every attendee will craft and take home at least one steel rose, with the option to create a second one if time permits.

*Choose the Buddy Up option and make one steel rose together with a friend.
