They are the ones he made with the plastic caps from over 30.000 bottles the Russian pensioner Olga Kostina for the facade of his wooden house, in the small village of Kamarchaga, bordering the Siberian taiga, about 80 km south-east of Krasnoyarsk.
Following the macrame weaving techniques, a term derived from the Arabic language that indicates a lace, an embroidery, a refined and graceful weave worked in knots, Mrs. Olga has decided to give free rein to her imagination, preserving the environment and making good use of their time. A perfect mix for one of the most beautiful natural ecosystems on Earth, but with a population density of just 3 people per square kilometer.
Having collected thousands and thousands of types of caps of plastic bottles, began to use them for decorate the walls of his home with traditional motifs and inspired by animals wild living in the forest. The retired patient placed each bottle cap by hand, using a hammer and nails to secure it in place of her. She now she seems she has no intention of stopping until the whole house, together with the adjacent structures, are covered with colorful motifs. For the joy of the eyes and the environment.
