The Journey of Building This LEGO Flower Collection
Starting with a passion for the LEGO Botanical Collection, I gradually expanded my collection with unique sets like Flower Bouquet (#10280), Sunflowers (#40524), and Bird of Paradise (#10289). Each flower was meticulously assembled, from choosing the right colors to arranging the intricate details, capturing the beauty of nature.
I then challenged myself with custom creations (MOC), such as the decorative dried flower wreaths and creative flower baskets. The creative process required not only patience but also innovative use of various LEGO pieces to achieve the most realistic effects.
Once completed, I displayed them on black wooden shelves, creating a vibrant LEGO garden that is both artistic and unique. This collection is not just about the joy of building but also a celebration of nature through the tiny bricks of LEGO.
