Yesterday I found an interesting object to be put on my snapshots. It was a doll. Anyway, it's not an ordinary doll which girls always play with. It was a
wood-made doll. The doll was actually bought three or four months ago at an exhibition. The name is
"HORTA" grass doll (Ind: boneka rumput horta). It is practically a plant media packed in the form of a doll grown by grass. This doll is very suitable as an exercise for children on how to grow plants so they will care more to their environment.
Horta doll is made of wood powder formed in various kinds of shape and grass seed is put on top of that so it will grow hair (in the form of grass). It's really easy to grow the hair. First of all, place the doll in the water container with the position of the head facing downward for approximately an hour. Then place the doll on a dry case. Don't forget to water its head every day. After a week, you can see the grass will start growing. You can do some experiments to make the doll more stylish.
I'm wondering if I have a thousand of Horta dolls...
