HEARTS AND FLOWERS handcrafted tree of life
$110.00
When paired together, hearts and flowers create a classic motif that represents the blooming, growth, and nurturing aspects of love. While the heart anchors emotional truth, affection, and vitality, the introduction of botanical elements adds themes of seasonality, beauty, and natural development.
HEARTS AND FLOWERS handcrafted glass suncatcher.
While the heart anchors emotional truth, affection, and vitality, the introduction of botanical elements adds themes of seasonality, beauty, and natural development.
I begin by wrapping an 8-inch circular metal ring with a white macrame cord. Inside the ring, I suspend a macrame web, creating the structure to hold the garden where golden hearts and red glass flowers bloom. I craft the glass from red plates and green discarded bottles, tumbling and drilling each piece in my studio. I then hand-tie every piece individually, securing it with a green glass bead Cascading down from the hoop are five delicate strands adorned with tumbled glass pieces, red flowers, beads, and gold hearts, including a charming enamel butterfly fluttering through the garden.
It makes a stunning centerpiece for any bright window or sunroom setting.
