Everyone can be an artist, regardless of their education or background and you might be surprised what people are capable of when it comes to creativity. In my opinion, there are no limits, or sky is the limit as we like to say.
Today I'd like to show you some amazing folk art, crafts that you may have never seen before and it's specific to this region (or not?).
Look at these scenes, made of wood, corn husk and most likely straw. These are raw materials you can collect for free. Wood is not something you can find on every corner, but those who are heating with wood, can spare a piece or two. What I mean here is that you don't have to spend large sums on raw material as you can collect the majority or it for free.
Two men having a drink. Now tell me this is not cute! Look at the implementation of this scene :)
The well known religious scene from Bethlehem. I don't know about you but I think this is excellent work. Also, look at the basket of roses, on the right. The basket most likely was made of straw and the roses were made of corn husk. Coasters on the left. You'd be amazed how many things you can do using these nature given raw materials.
Baskets, lamp shades, different flowers, glass covers, fish, all made of corn husk. (That fish is for 
You can decorate your Christmas tree entirely using these straw decorations.
The master and his glass art. This man was creating glass tubes and glass sticks on the spot.
Glass jewellery of all kinds.
And this was the booth where I needed my strength the most.
Look at this beauty! How can you resist such temptation? The only reason I did not buy any is because it's not really my style and know I would not wear it much.
Using that old wood to display the jewellery was an excellent idea. Looks very original.
Flowers, cats, birds, you decide which one you buy. A pair of earrings and a necklace, for 30€.
Here you could find all kinds of Romanian folk costumes, shirts, embroidered table cloths.
Beading? This is also art, a very difficult one, but this lady was mastering it like the best of the best do. I had a nice chat with her as I was doing this years ago and have some experience.
Look at these beauties. It's not my style, but regardless, these are masterpieces in my eyes. I was looking at them, trying to figure out how it's done and I think I know the answer. I have the beads and the needle by the way, as you need special needles for this, very thin and flexible ones, that you will break in the second minute :D Yes, I have broken several, till I've learnt not to squeeze them so hard. Would I create one? Nope, I don't think so as it kills your eyes. If you don't wear it, why create one, right? In any case, I consider myself fortunate, for knowing how to do it, although this is not luck, but hard work and practice. Oh, another thing, imagine how expensive these are.
Rugs (not like the one we have in crypto), cloths, towels (not like the ones we have today). These were rough, compared to the quality we have today as most of them were not made of fine quality fiber.
I was eyeing those bags at the back, but as I can create myself a similar one anytime, you can imagine I would never pay 30 - 50€ for such a bag.
These on the other hand were a totally different matter. Those army green ones, the beige and the dark blue were calling my name. I'm planning on making a green cross body bag sometime in the near future. Wold be nice create an unique bag. (If shipping would not be so expensive, I could sell my bags worldwide on Hive.)
Hand painted pendants, painted on wood. There were a few I liked, especially the orange ones. Not that I don't already have a few, but you know. However, I resisted temptation heroically. There were at 7€.
Wooooooooll!! There was this poster, showcasing how the wool is processed.
What you see here is wool in every shape and form possible.
Yarn made of wood did not interest me, but I was wondering if those pack were for felting.
This poster confirmed that it was for felting. What you see on the poster is kids learning how to do felting. It is on my list, but first I need to see how it's done exactly and what I need to make it happen.
I really love places like that as you can learn the whole process from the beginning to the end. This is useful especially for kids as I think they need to learn how it was done, before the industry took over.
The truth is, I would participate in such a workshop, just need a mask as those fibers make me sneeze. Most likely I have a slight form of allergy, so I need to avoid those tiny, invisible fiber parts flying in the air when fabric is shakes out.
I hope you were able to find something you like.
