RE: A crafted celebration of our uniquely South African Fynbos.
Hello!
Fynbos... It is the one thing I am missing here on the eastern coast of our beautiful country. I cannot open my backdoor and cut a Protea or Candelbra Lily for my coffee table. Here it is replaced with "green." My stepson asked the other day if we are now in winter or not, as everything is still so green. (•ิ‿•ิ)
Okay, I should not only complain. Here, the bird of paradise flower, the Strelitzia, grows in our backyard.
Back to fynbos, I don't know if you are aware of the fact that fynbos needs fire. It blew my mind when I first heard of it when we had a fire in Keurbooms. It is amazing that with too little or too much fire, it will no longer exist.
As for the jewelry, It is the first time that I have seen this. It is beautiful. I know the ladies in my family will love it!
PS: It is great that you are using #southafrica
It is so beautifully unique, isn't it! I have to say that I am very blessed - I actually have a HUGE king protea bush on my front garden which seems to grace me with blooms all year round.
Definitely also a blessing and yes, SUCH a beautiful flower!!!!
Yes - a curious thing really, isn't it haha! When we first moved into this place, the garden had a fair amount of fynbos in it and I made a point of educating myself because I figured that the care of fynbos would be somewhat different to that of other plants - which in some aspects it is. I never really used to be much of a fan... but I cannot lie, it has really grown on me!
It is isn't it!!! I thought the same thing - very unique. Some of the SA craft markets I think can get a little monotonous sometimes, so it is always nice to see something different - and especially so pretty! Also, like I said... always nice to spread a little proudly South African love :D <3
:) Mostly I just forget lol!
Have a beautiful day Pat xxx
