Feng Shui Fountains & Bowls






These are hand-made bowls, used for Feng Shui fountains or as water containers for the birds visiting the garden.
Each one of them was created separately, without a pattern, just using my hands (with gloves!) and by forming a new shape in a stone-like mixture.
They are decorated with natural seashells (look at the closeup photo), glass nuggets and natural stones in various sizes.
You can put them indoors or outdoors. The rain won't harm them, and not even one drop of water would spill out of them.
The stone mushroom was also made from the same materials. It's been in my garden for years.

Recycling - Papier Mache Bowl With Leaves




This is a bowl I made some time ago, thanks to my wonderful Papier Mache tutor Nili.
I used an old fan's cover for the base of this bowl.
I covered it with Papier Mache from both sides.
Then I covered it with small pieces of recycled paper, with natural dried leaves for decoration.
Finally, I covered it with varnish for protection.
Although It is rather large (its diameter is 44 cms) it is relatively light.
This Papier Mache bowl is all about recycling, and it's very useful.

Add Colour To Your Life






I created this Papier-mache bowl out of recycled newspaper, attached to an octagon porcelain bowl in order to maintain its unique shape.
After it was completely dry I took it off, and then I painted a free asymmetric pattern on it with oil paint, in vivid colours.
This bowl is very useful and it adds colour to any furniture it is placed on.
