The art of plants

Combining her passion for art with nature, Dutch designer Birgitt Olislagers creates botanical hoops with a difference. Rather than embroider her subjects, Olislagers paints them. She starts with watercolor ink on aquarelle paper and then transfers the works onto textile via a heat press before framing them in wooden hoops. Her favorite plant is the String of Pearls, and you can find her painted version, together with many other flora, on her website Olislagersdesign.com.

• You can find her work on Instagram as well.
