There's a fine-looking Christmas tree on display in Souk Bolilao this Christmas season for the Bolilao Christmas tree contest on 30 December.
The Christmas tree is created with discarded trash. The lights are strung as well as shiny flecks made from the bottle caps. Then the tree is proudly on display at the corner of a street.
The creators of this tree have spent days constructing the Christmas tree. The tree is made from empty cans, candy wrappers, straws, bamboo, cogon grass, empty bottles, and otherwise.
The Souk Bolilao Christmas tree has malleable stretched foliage that has a brownish colour with just a tip-off of white, which makes the tree a favourite of people about. Sort of strong boughs weep charmingly, being hung with colourful ornaments. Fussy shearing creates a beautiful tree that stands straight and retains its loveliness throughout this Christmas season.
The tree creates a total festive and holiday atmosphere in the area at day and night.
Mr Sam Pasaporte, Bolilao foremost barangay councillor, heading the residents of Souk, Mrs Gemma Villarina, one of the locals here, coordinates the project, smoothing the progress of the creation and embellishment of the tree.
The rationales of making the Souk Christmas tree are to develop innovative designs for rubbish, to hoist awareness of the residents on how to reuse rubbish to make a useful object out of it, to bring in residents to working with rubbish as a recyclable stuff, to uphold a shared vision to craft an environmentally sustainable option in the creating a particular item, to promote unity and teamwork amongst the residents, to promote the neighbourhood as one of the noteworthy spots in Mandurriao, Iloilo City all through Christmas, and to bring cheer to residents.
Visit Souk Bolilao starting tonight till 31 December. For niceties, ring 09293502872.
