I like to divert the objects of their first function and that by magic, they become a new unexpected object, at the same time useful and decorative. Fairy gardens, terrariums and miniatures are part of my favorite themes. Here I associated a block of concrete that I found on my way to create a very special bookend:
It is the meeting between a concrete block and a corner of nature on a shelf. icon
A geometric concrete cube painted in green terrarium hosts a small enchanted garden with bird pool, water lily and succulents. A corner of nature will embellish your work decor, in a greenhouse book or clipboard.
We start by painting the gray concrete block in green grass, once dry, we varnish
the grass is cut and glued on a surface of the block
to build the bird pool, we start by painting the pebbles and the shell, once dry, we assemble them with strong glue and we polish it all
we put blue colored resin in the shell, we add the glitter and the leaf and water lily flower, then we stick the bird
we divide the plants and the pond on the grass and we fix well


It's over, we created a book greenhouse by creating a miniature garden on an upcycled concrete block.


DIMENSIONS: block of 8 cm of side and 17 cm of height
