A little rainforest, built into four feet.
This is the finished home of the blue backdrop we shared from the workbench. Once the colour, planting and water were added, those early foam shapes became a layered little rainforest—with plenty of ledges to perch on and a waterfall running into the matching custom bowl below.
From first shape to finished character.
Every photo below came from the actual workbench.
Where it started
Bright-blue foam let us map the ledges, planting pockets and the route of the water feature before the backdrop found its final colour.
Building the climb
Layered shelves and branches turned the back wall into usable height instead of leaving it as flat scenery.
A bowl made to belong
The custom bowl was shaped alongside the backdrop so the waterfall could land in a practical water area without looking like an afterthought.
Welcome to the rainforest
Installed, planted and ready for its residents—the finished backdrop brings the ledges, greenery and matching bowl together as one enclosure.
Then the rain rolled in
With the mist and waterfall running, the centre of the backdrop comes alive and the whole enclosure settles into its green tree frog character.
