But since Spring still haven't decided to show up, at least not here in Croatia, I got crafty and made myself a bouquet of colorful flowers.
First I made five kusudama flowers:

You can find instructions how to make them here. Then I used some wire and buttons to make them stand in a vase, I just pulled wire through buttons and then through middle of a flower and I got a fun looking bouquet.

On this flower I used beads instead of button and added two extra petals:

I'm kind of hoping that looking at my newly created flower bouquet will stir up some magic and make me finish this flower painting that I started last year:

And to end my flower related post here is one big, drawn flower:

Have a happy Friday everyone!

Not only have you mastered illustrations, you hve mastered origami as well! I really dig this colorful little bouquet :)
The flowers look lovely, I'll have to try those out.
What a beautiful bouquet! It will keep your spirit high despite the snow! I am sick and tired of the winter, too. We all are here, in Bulgaria. The picture is the same: snow, snow, snow, rain, snow, rain... But today we had sun and higher temperatures! I hope you'll find the inspiration to finish that beautiful painting!
neznam kako stižeš sve to napraviti: crtati, obilaziti razne web stranice, izrađivati cvijeće.
kako neko vrijeme nisam stizao pisati komentare napisati ću sve odjednom.
dakle,
love is in the air: slučajnost ili ne imam jedan slično postavljen crtež sa avionom i helikopterom. naravno, tvoj je crtež pozitivniji od mog. imaš ga negdje na mom blogu (linkati ću ti drugi put). ako se radi o slučajnosti prilično je neobična - čak je helikopter na lijevoj a avion na desnoj strani, mada imamo i jedne iste hlače (: (krem sa crtama) koje sam vidio da nosiš na jednom od tvojih starijih postova. ja svoje više ne nosim sad imam neke druge ljetne (:
carpacio magazine mi se nažalost nije dao otvoriti - moj browser im se ne dopada pa mi nedaju da prošvrljam kroz njihovu stranicu.
i šećer na kraju, "vukini slatki snovi" je odlična i zanimljiva priča! čudi me da si okolišala postati ih na blog. prvih pet crteža iz tog "ciklusa" su savršeni a zadnji mi je u redu ali mi se nekako šlepa za ovima, preprazan mi je što mi je čak u neku ruku žao jer su ovih prvih nekoliko stvarno tip-top.
Have a great weekend!! your lovely flowers and artwork have refreshed me a great deal esp now i am down with fever! every creation of yours has the magical touch of healing
You never cease to amaze me! You are like a waterfall of creativity! These are a beautiful and a wonderful ode to Spring. Thank you for your constant inspiration. Come to Seattle - spring has sprung!
Fun! I generally like winter, but it does start to wear on you a little. Some nice warm days sprinkled in between would be great. Maybe these flowers of yours will spark a little warmth :)
Thank you Maja, Lins and rossichka!
hvala na komentaru Damire!
nisam vidjela tvoj crtež sa avionom i helikopterom, ali potražit ću ga na tvom blogu! zaista se radi o slučajnosti, kad me rad nekog umjetnika inspirira, uvijek to napišem i stavim link.
hvala na komentaru vuka, da, zadnji crtež mi se više nije dao raditi , s obzirom da sam ih sve napravila u jedno popodne tako da više nisam imala volje :)
thank you Owl Eng, I hope you're feeling better now!
get zapped -thanks! luckily we're having a nice sunny day today too! happiness!
thank you Jose! it is much warmer today :)
Beautiful, Asja. I must find a way to link to this.
