Pop Art Posy

Springs here!!! and my flowers that I planted back in Autumn are just starting to look there best, all my Anenomes and Fressias are out, my Ranunculas and Poppies are being a bit slow, but I finally have enough of everything to have a play!!


I've been out of town this week, and got to revisit my dear old friend Spotlight, who Ive missed a lot since moving back to Gisborne. So I went a little bit mad buying, Ribbons, Trims, buttons, anything really that I thought at the time could come in handy down the track.


So when I got home with my car load of goodies, I was very excited to get stuck into my next project. Awhile back I made some vases out of recycled tin cans, which I covered with pages from old comic books. Ive been waiting for my anemones and poppies to come out to use my comic book vases, I knew there bright colours would give a real Pop art feel, think Andy Warhole and Roy Lichtenstein.





Anemones, Freesias, Iceland Poppies, Forget-me-nots and Dusty Miller
