Welcome Mat



For my country Bulgaria, I tried to create a mat representative of the traditions they cherished as a country. I wanted my mat to resemble a rose, which is a huge part of their culture. Every year the biggest event in Bulgaria is the Festival of Roses. Roses are a huge part of their economy, they sell to all the big perfumes. I tied the end of the fabric together with a red and white tassel, which is given to friends and relatives when they come to visit as a sign of health and happiness.
