I don’t think I’ll ever have a problem with Christmas presents. I’m sure I won’t buy anything this year either, I’d rather donate the work of my own hands.
I also thought about auctioning off a few pieces and sending the proceeds to charity.
I’m sure I won’t keep any of it for myself because the flow experience of making is the point.
I would now like to present two more of my works.
This one is decorated with Sumac leaves, yarn and seeds. It can be used as a pencil holder.
Details:
This one can be used as a vase, because it's based on a plastic bottle that I cut in half. Decoration is feather and yarns.

Why metallic colors?
I also tried the matte colors, but they weren’t nearly as beautiful. But they are good as a base because the surface does not have to be metallic everywhere. My favorites are fiery bronze and peacock colors.
I started a new project yesterday, making a tree from real twigs, wrapped in textile, with textile leaves, flowers, possibly fruits that will be interchangeable with the seasons.
Now even more uncharacteristic of the look, it may get a new textile layer.
The exciting thing is that I don’t yet know what the next step will be, what it will look like.
