I Heart Flowers Silk Tapestry Box by brizel4TheAnimals


I Heart Flowers is a lovely soft fiber arts container by brizel4TheAnimals featuring hand dyed vegan banana silk in tones of purple, violet, and aqua blue... paired with pastel yellow silk sari yarn- an upcycled material made from reclaimed loom warps. It has a lid of its own which is embellished with a hand painted Czech art glass button... a blue & green heart with three flowers at its center.

This sweet Silk Tapestry Art Box measures approx: 2 3/4" in diameter x 2 1/8" high with an interior box of 1 3/8" in diameter x 1 1/2" high. Its raw silk weight is roughly 1.2 oz (34 g).

I own some 20 acres up in the mountains where I have planted orchards and floral gardens. Personal funds are put towards helping to sustain this habitat which attracts birds, butterflies, bees, bats, hummingbirds... and it is also a seasonal mating ground for dragonflies ! Twilight is part of a 2,000 acre ranch out in the chaparral wilderness where wild animals still roam.

I provide a home for my animal rescues, create & maintain habitat for wildlife to prosper, support animal welfare through petition & animal advocacy work, donate 10% of my Silk Tapestry Art Box sales to EFA's Charity of the Month, and promote & support Team EFA members through Etsy Treasuries & the EFA blog. I am also Team Captain, Membership & COTM Leader & Blog Editor for Team EFA !
