How to Make a Copper Pipe Wreath

Forming the Copper Base

The hardest business office close making this wreath is forming the base of operations amongst the copper pipe. I used a Ratcheting Pipe Cutter to cutting the copper.

Next, trouble upward the cutter within your ratcheting tool amongst your sharpie mark, as well as piece of cake tighten the ratcheting tool until the piping cuts through. It volition larn tougher as well as tougher to tighten the tool until it breaks. Do this 4 times, for each 1 of your piping pieces

Then, I used a two-part epoxy glue to attach the copper elbows as well as conduct piping pieces inward place. All you lot exercise is mix around the same amount of gum from each container (the resin as well as the hardener), as well as therefore mix it amongst a spare slice of woods (I ofttimes purpose a popsicle stick of a pocket-size dowel from the dollar store), until it looks well-mixed.

Apply the gum to the within edges of the copper elbows, as well as therefore slide the conduct copper pieces inside. Make certain to permit your slice dry out flat, therefore that it’s non bent out of shape – it volition live impossible to curvature 1 time it’s dry! Let it dry out for 5 minutes.

Add the greenery first, every bit a base. When they were set, I played about amongst the placement of my leaves as well as florals until I was happy. I glued the leaves downward get-go as well as the florals last.
