Last summer my friend Theresa found 3 large wooden window frames that had been discarded. She brought them to my studio saying that I probably would figure out what to do with them. It took a while, but had a great time designing these simple structures!

For this one, I sawed the top off and secured it to one side to avoid symmetry. A copper grid was secured to support the the foxgloves. I covered the sides with moss, so the bamboo could be glued on more easily. A beautiful piece of wood that I had stored for a very long time was perfect for the base. I cut some windy branches from my wisteria. The love-in-a-puff, dehydrated mushrooms, green cherry tomatoes, snake grass and ferns added some whimsy.

Thank you Theresa for the fabulous pictures and Feli for modeling at the crack of dawn!
