Beautiful Blooms
















How incredible are these enormous flower displays!? Practically takes my breath away.
Can you imagine walking those steps for some special evening?

The details posted on the site:
"Underneath the glass roof of the Cambon-Capucines pavilion was like a giant pop-up book made of white paper. The grandiose décor was made up of monochrome arrangements of roses, daisies, leaves and petals winding their way up and around the room's 32 impressive columns and draped over the railings of the entry stairway where the models appeared. Not to mention the 84 round tables tables with their tablecloths and paper bouquets. All in all, there were 7000 handmade paper flowers, which took a total of 4800 hours of work to assemble. 4000 m2 of paper were needed to create these ephemeral sculptures all in one color...."
