FLORAL ART 4

I made a double one this time - with some help fixing the frames (cadres) together (ensemble) and the plastic boxes behind.

It was a special order to go next to a modern art painting with green and mauve in it.

This one is completely different, it's made of slate (ardoise) and it's heavy (lourd). i'm not completely satisfied with it, I might change it (il se pourrait que je le modifie.)

FLORAL ART

This weekend I suddenly remembered I knew how to do other things than take photos, so...

I made this.
Well, first I went shopping to buy some frames (cadres), some plastic boxes and some plants. I found some very nice frames for under 5 euros and I was very pleased with the result.
I didn't only make one, while the inspiration was working I made 4.

Fantastic, no?
Tableaux végétaux - don't know what they are called in English, (but the french name is not very poetical!) are in the fashion (à la mode) here but they are very expensive, the smallest one being 22 euros. Mine cost less than 10 and are much nicer.
I have to perfect them, to make sure they're solid and find a way to hang them up (les suspendre), for the moment they are on the table.
But why not? I can add a candle (bougie) and use them on the coffee table or as decoration on the dinner table when I have guests (invités).
