VW BOP! Bird Of Paradise in the bud vase


It’s good energy, good chi, just a good feeling to have something in your Volkswagon New Beetle bud vase. Doubly so if you create it yourself. No store bought artificial flowers for me. Today, I got the inspiration to sculpt my rendition of the bird of paradise flower out of fimo modeling clay. Earlier, we took a walk around the neighborhoods. Just one block away, on our way home, I had to stop and remark at some perfect blooms. That inspired me to sculpt this unusual plant for my bud vase. I made seven birds, but three look sweet here.
