❤️Handmade Rear View mirror Copper wire and Epoxy Iris flower Suncatcher / rear view mirror decor with small Rainbow prisms ❤️
~~~~Uses~~~~
*This makes the perfect unique gift for any loved one. Especially as a “memorial Suncatcher”. Many people order these in sun catcher form for loved ones who are grieving. The flower symbolizes the loved one who has passed away, and the prism light casted off, symbolizes that loved one surrounding them each day. If you want to order this for a grieving loved one let me know. I will wrap it special, and attach a note explaining the symbolism in general terms. It also works great as a car rear view mirror dangle. It’s unique and delicate looking, but strong as long as you arent crushing it.
~~~~Dimensions~~~~
The large window suncatcher measures 8” tall (from the top of the Copper ring to the bottom of the longest prism) and 3.75” wide. The smaller rear view mirror version measures 5” tall and 2.75” wide. Please keep in mind I make the entire piece from scratch, even the ring. Therefore there might be slight differences in size. The flower will also be slightly different each time I make it, but I try to make it as similar as possible. I add about a foot of chain from the top of the ring to the clasp at the very top. I’m happy to give you a longer chain if desired. It has a small ring at the top to hang on a hook, but also comes with a clasp so you can wrap the chain around something and secure it. I found this is an easy solution rather than providing a hook that may not fit your mirror or curtain hanger. You can clip the clasp making the piece hang as long or short as you want!
~~~~How it’s made & what its made of~~~~
This piece is my custom designed window sun catcher or rear view mirror dangle. I made the flower and ring with pure Copper wire. The inside of the flower is filled with a special UV epoxy, that I painted with a custom mixture of pearl white iridescent mica powder and epoxy. I then added some gold/ bronze mica power to the tips. See the last picture for an example of another Iris I made with clear UV epoxy. Please keep in mind that you ca order a custom color for your flower. However, it may not be the exact color you are picturing. I’ll probably reach out to you with questions about the exact color you are picturing. Many people can say “blue” and have a very different understanding of what hue “blue” is. For this reason I work closely with my clients to get the custom color, or colors they are picturing!
*Hanging from the bottom of the ring is gold/copper chain that connect to little prism crystals. They cast beautiful small rainbow prism colors all around when the sun hits them. Hanging from the top of the ring is a small gold crescent moon charm. The entire ornament is held up by a thin chain that has a clasp at the top to secure it around a rear view mirror or curtain rod. The flower is made with coated Jewelry Copper wire and will be tarnish resistant due to the coating and the fact that the wire is also coated with epoxy. The thicker ring around the flower is bare copper wire. It may darken and patina over time. Natural patina takes time, it wont truly patina for years. Did you know that Copper can always be brightened up to its original color with steel wool or a file? Cool huh?
~~~~Customization Details & Options~~~~
**Keep in mind I make each petal individually, forming each piece, then I assemble the flower and add epoxy to keep it all together. Each component is put together piece by piece. They take a good 2 hours to make. They are Pure copper and special UV epoxy. Adding a color to the flower means after making each petal, I mix up a custom color with epoxy, and natural mica powder. I then paint each petal and dry them before forming the flower together. This creates a gorgeous custom flower like you’ve never seen before. But, the process takes time, 2.5+ hours. This is why they are more expensive than average sun catchers. I have an option for a clear flower, and an option to pick a custom color for your flower! If you choose a custom color please leave the color you would like in the personalization section, or in a note to me. If you pick a custom color but do not leave a note, I will reach out to you. I can make colored flowers in many ways, and I can send you example pictures. I can make them like the example pic with pearl white and a colored tip, sparkle colors, clear that blends into a color on the tip, and more. The world is your oyster! There are so many options! Im happy to work with you to create a custom creation! Wanna get really crazy?? Reach out to me if you want to pick a different flower, or want to change the flower to a butterfly, or dragonfly!! Got your own crazy idea?? Ok, let talk about it!
*As a single mom of 3 who makes everything herself, I want to make sure I’m never late on an order. That is why there is a somewhat longer production time. Usually 5-7 days, but I try to make it less than that. Reach out if you need a rush order, and I’ll find a way to help you! I make all of these (and most of what you see in the shop) myself. *** All orders are gift wrapped and come with a small gift from me, Elle ❤️
If you have questions, or want a custom order, please reach out to me! I love a custom order!
