Thanks - they are a lot of work. you cut and then wire pieces together - then dip in white paint as a base, then spray paint colors, then paint by hand.
I think the craft (flowers) started out being cut from aluminum cans - then someone learned about sheets of aluminum that offset printers use. So I'd go visit offset printers and buy sheets of their used aluminum.
But I never see the flowers any more. I don't think anyone is making them.
