Flowers for Weesp

This enormous handmade flower bouquet with primroses, tulips, wild roses and hyacinths was inspired by the flowers decorating the ceramics on display in the museum at Weesp's town hall. Linda bends her steel frames by hand then welds the separate parts together. She then cuts leaves and petals out of lorry tarp and adds details in wool, velvet or paper. Her flowers are 100 percent handmade and that is why they look alive.
