Copper Line is one of our fractal-burning pieces. After the burn, we did a water-based stain on the wood to give it a more rustic appearance. The whole piece was then waxed in copper and after buffing away the excess it left a darker vein of copper running around the piece in the burn area.
This wooden planter was created using the Lichtenberg/Fractal burning process. This process uses high-voltage electricity to create fractal designs in wood. As the electrical power moves across the wood grain it burns unique patterns into the wood. Each piece is different in their little subtleties because of how the wood grain allows the wood to burn. So no two boxes will ever be exactly the same. We like how the burn looks on the natural wood so most of the boxes we create using this process just get a sealer after removing the ash, but we do make some variants with things like gold running through the burn, aging or staining of the wood or even waxing.
Each of our flower boxes are handcrafted and individually hand painted, stained, waxed, decoupaged, burned or embellished making each one a unique creation. I’m not saying we won’t create some planters in the same colors or designs but each one will always be slightly different because they are handcrafted and not coming out of a factory.
The artificial flower arrangement is created in a removable plastic liner in case you want to change it up eand sit a live plant inside your planter box. The small flower box holds a 4” live plant but you will need to put something in the bottom to protect your wood box. You can also special order a different flower arrangements to change up your box in the future if you want. Contact us directly to order just an arrangement in one of our plastic liners and it will fit right into your existing flower box because we make them all the same dimensions.
Plants or flowers not your thing? Well these decorative boxes can be used for many other things too. So ditch the flowers and you have a cute desk caddy for all your office supplies, a holder for your makeup brushes or jewelry, place one on the entry table to hold dads wallet keys & glasses, use in the kitchen to hold spice packets, hot cocoa packets, or coffee pods at your coffee station. In the service industry then what about a cute tip holder? The possibilities are endless so, choose what matches your decor style and make it your own.
