I needed the wreath to be as light as possible to make sure it would "dance in the rain" on the flexible metal stand.
Three Lilies plaited to create a sensational, singular flower "growing" out of a Equisetum dome filled with Rainbow Oasis pebbles.
I wanted my design to feature mostly growing plants- creating a natural display on the supernatural wreath.
When I started researching mud as a possible enhancement to contemporary floral art I was thoroughly inspired by the possibilities.
Weaving hot glue spider webs
Because it was my birthday I wanted to give the audience each a slice of birthday cake to celebrate with me. For obvious reasons I settled on dark chocolate Mud Pies.
A mould is a hollow container or profile used to give shape to molten or hot liquid material as it cools and hardens.
It's not really what we call things that matter but what they are made of- in this design, it's made of all three types of Oasis and wool.
