#ValentinesDay #Gift Idea! #Handcrafted #Flower

Valentine's Day is right around the corner. Yea, I can't believe it either. 

I feel every year around this time, everyone starts going a little crazy trying to decide what to get that special someone.

Flowers are always a staple for Valentine's Day- no matter what the cost, what the occasion really, flowers are always a great option to get your lady.

The bad part? They die within 2 weeks. No matter what ya do to keep those suckers alive, they will eventually turn brown, wilted, and you'll have to throw them out. [insert sad face here]

What if you could spend roughly the same amount of money for a flower that will never die. Yes, I said that. A flower that will forever be a gorgeous flower. A flower that will remind you of that special someone who gave it to you. Whenever you view this piece of gorgeousness you'll always smile. Don't you think that sounds nice? [c'mon, you know you do]

My friend makes these absolutely amazing copper flowers. Copper. Flowers. How cool! Look at this gorgeous work.... I'm still in awe he can make these- just stunning.



Look at that. I mean, seriously? WOW





I'm always just flabbergasted when I see metalwork like this. It is just crazy how people can make this stuff!

This flower will last forever. I guarantee your special someone will go nuts if you get this for them. This Gorgeous Copper Flower sells for only $100.

Looking on websites for flowers, (that I repeat, will only last 2 weeks), they range from $60- $100. For only a couple weeks worth of time? Why not get a handcrafted piece of art that will last a lifetime.



If you're interested in this copper flower (which, why wouldn't you be?) you can contact the creator, Mike, at this email address to purchase one: mike.asquino@gmail.com
Tell him I sent you if you do!! :)

  6. That is really neat! I love flowers, but you're right, they do die within two weeks. It would be nice to have something beautiful that lasts forever instead.
