    Great video tracy. When you don't want your solder to remelt on the stem while you're soldering in your stamens: make a paste with 'yellow ocre' powder and dab it on any area where you want the solder to hold. It'll be a game changer for you. 😘

    Those flowers are soooooo precious and adorable! ❤❤❤ I wish my saw skills were good enough to cut out little flowers like that but sadly I just have basic jewelry saw skills but I'll get better eventually and will definitely try to make some flowers. Thanks for the tutorial! 👍😃

      Thanks for watching! Yes, you will get better and once you find your rhythm you’ll sail with it. Btw, these flowers are so organic looking, a little bit of wonkiness in the sawing will only add to their natural look! Try practicing on some cheap copper sheet from a hardware store. Happy smithing!

    So just out of curiosity, wouldn't it have been easier to put the little balls on the ends before you so
    Soldered it into the flour??? In my mind I just think it would have been easier to do that first, and then put it in the flower
