Welcome to Oz Wedding Cake Toppers, formerly located at Oz Wire Art Weddings, with 76 sales on Etsy!

My name is Nicholas and I first became interested in working with wire in 2003 and have since been fascinated with the amount of detail that can be put into a single strand of wire. I have always enjoyed working with my hands and I especially love the challenges presented in creating a piece of art from a single strand of wire.

For several years I enjoyed going to craft markets to sell my art and also in meeting many talented and creative people. Unfortunately, in 2011, I suffered a stroke that left me with limitations of both strength and endurance and I am no longer able to sell at craft markets.

After the stroke, a major part of my rehabilitation was in learning how to work with wire again. Working with wire is all about fine motor control and I had to focus all my concentration on every move and turn of the wire. It took almost a year of steady work to finally be able to produce a finished bicycle again.

The "Oz" in Oz Wedding Cake Toppers derives its spelling from the Australian tendency to shorten names. Aussies often shorten of the name of Australia to Aus, yet with the pronunciation as if it's spelled Oz.

So as you can see: Australia = Aus = Oz = Oz Wedding Cake Toppers.

Thank you for visiting my shop and sharing my vision.
