Supporting Ukrainian Artisans
PhotoGiftsCrafts is actually a family workshop. Illia and his wife, Olena, make all the handcrafted items with occasional help from their children.
They specialize in botanical inspired suncatchers and wall art using epoxy resin. The pressed real flower and mushroom displays are impressive. I like how the compositions turned out. Ilia says he collects specimens on walks or when travelling and then presses them dry.
Also stunning are the designs which look like stained glass. These are actually created on epoxy resin bases. The flowers and leaves are hand painted using acrylic paints which transmits light. The paints are sun and water resistant.
Illia says they do have stock in the US which means shipping is speedier for those located in North America!

Very pretty!
ReplyDeleteI have to wonder if the resin will yellow after hanging in sunlight for any length of time.
Yes, there will be yellowing. Depending on the design and the colors used, that may not matter. Another way to counter that is to add a little blue to the clear background. It could be the sky!
DeleteI didn't know the blue would help, thanks for the tip.
