Las fallas de Valencia (Traditional celebration in the city of Valencia - Spain)
« on: April 03, 2014, 14:10:14 »

Hello everyone, long time without posting, I've been too busy these months, I hope visiting the forum more often from now.

I'm not coming with empty hands, I'm bringing you one of my last works which I'm so proud of. Here in my country it's called "La ofrenda", the offering translated to english. If you're wondering what's it about, I'll let you a wikipedia link under these lines for more info :). Whatever, here there are some snapshots of my "Ofrenda" that I really hope you like it as much as I did making the diorama.

Therefore, I wish I could be more tuned to the forum and confering more contributions to it, so I'll try it. See you!!!

Thank you for sharing this beautiful tradition celebrating St Joseph the patrons of Carpenters and the amazing 762 works of art made of wood and colorful materials which all will be burned during the célébrations of the night of March 19th everery year  :)

The city truly has a Spanish feel and atmosphere and the Falla is absolutely gorgeous  :love: :love: :love:

I saw your fallas ladies from an earlier thread and that was what started me off on my current customizing binge so I would just like to say thank you! 

Your creations are WONDERFUL!!!  :love:  A question on the big Virgin Mary, is her robe made from Playmobil flowers?

Again thanks for sharing and hope to see a real-life Las Fallas event soon.
