Christmas cactus flower or "Reina de Noche"
This is my mother's favorite flower, it was her joy and pride. She took the time last year to count the flowers and buttons of the plant: more than two hundred! In the big pot.
The colours are so amazing when you see them in person. The fuchsias and the red are so vibrant, no picture can capture them as we see them with the eye.
In honour of her legacy (not just the plant of course!), I will try to make them in silver, I need to learn casting and get the Rhinogold software, and learn how to use the enamel.
I thought about making a set of earrings, pendant and ring, I have no idea where to start!
Here is a picture so you can have an idea of the flower.
Love to all.

Quelques flashes de Flash Mode à l'Alliance Française, kind of peruvian fashion week
The theme was architecture reflected on clothing. There were many interesting proposals: Katia Nakamura with her silver jewelry and her interpretation of "rejas", old and new ones. Lovely jewelry I must say.
Carla Reaño and her futuristic urban collection.
Denisse Távara and her black collection, combining different black fabrics that showed us that black has many hues, playing with textures and yes, black is not just black!
Levi Exaltación, a guy who likes using different fabrics besides cotton, trying with fabrics we are not used to see in clothing.
These are the few designers I could interview, discovering a new facet of myself: asking questions about their work, they were eager to tell me about them!
Maybe I should become an interviewer, it's very interesting!
I forgot to mention the sculptures of Rhony Alhalel, the guest artist for this exposition. And Mme. l'ambassatrice Cécile Pozzo Di Borgo.
