Wood Rose

I’ve lived in Bow NH all my life. I have always had a love for all things crafty and I like to repurpose/reuse whenever I can. My woodturning husband brought me a box of shavings four years ago and asked what I could make with these. And this is how the wood shavings came to life as flowers. Each rose petal is hand cut from the shavings and carefully placed to shape a beautiful one of a kind rose. A common meaning associated with wooden roses is eternal love and commitment. The wooden rose will not wilt and die, it remains forever. When I’m not creating flowers I love spending time with our grandchildren and enjoying the outdoors.
