Fabric Garden | Jardim de tecido

After 4 years I finally finished furnishing my house. To celebrate this moment and to decorate the bathrooms I made some yoyo flowers and built a fabric garden using  pottery vases, flower foam and wood sticks (here in Brazil, commonly used as barbecue sticks sold on many streets).

One kind of flower is basically a big yoyo filled with synthetic fiber and thread wrinkles.

The bigger flowers were made with 10 yoyos (5 filled with synthetic fiber and 5 just sewed one to the other). I’ve also used a yellow yoyo as the flower head. With the pottery vases and the flower foam – which was not the best option because it is not very firm – I made the flower base.

As a special touch, I pour some lavender essence in the floral foam to leave a pleasant aroma.

Now I have a garden in each bathroom with two advantages over the traditional flowers: they do not require water or natural light!

Depois de 4 anos, finalmente consegui terminar de mobiliar minha casa. Para comemorar este novo momento e para enfeitar os banheiros, fiz algumas flores de fuxico e construi um jardim de tecido usando  vasos de cerâmica, espuma floral e palitos para churrasquinho de gato – aqui no Brasil, é bem comum venderem nas ruas carne assada nesses espetos improvisados.

Um dos tipos de flor é basicamente um grande fuxico recheado com fibra sintética e gomos amarrados. As flores maiores.Com os vasos e a espuma floral – que é bem difícil de manipular, porque não fixa direito – montei a estrutura das novas flores.

Para dar um toque especial, coloquei uma essência de alfazema na espuma floral para deixar um aroma agradável.

Agora tenho um jardim em cada banheiro com duas vantagens sobre as flores tradicionais: essas não necessitam de água nem luz natural!
