About the page author
Our heroine's name is Olga Prinka, she lives in the UK. Here is what she says about herself: “I am engaged in graphic design, but I love and always loved to do something with my hands. My handicraft journey began with crocheting and knitting. Gradually, I turned to flowers and botanical art. As a result, I developed my own style , somewhat similar to embroidery, in which organic material acts as a thread. "

What is this page about
Olga says that the idea of this technique came to her in a dream. At first she used a sieve as a basis, placing flowers on it, and then went on to the hoop with the translucent mesh material tucked into them. She takes dried flowers or fresh ones, treating them with a special composition to maintain their shape and color, she also uses seeds, stems, leaves, weaving all this into the mesh cells so that the most delicate patterns are formed.
