Sweeping fallen leaves and just throwing them into dumpsters like they're trash? That wouldn’t fly in the Land of the Rising Sun, where locals are turning fallen foliage into stunning pieces of art.
The Japanese have taken it to Instagram to share their awesome pieces of contemporary leaf art. The new trend is called “ochiba art” or “fallen leaf art”, and it’s actually a very cool idea to bring life to those boring sidewalks at no cost at all. (h/t: rocketnews24, demilked)

WoW! I was so fascinated I looked it up - there are tutorials on how to make these beautiful roses.
I honestly am mind blown about how creative Japan is, especially after watching the video about the Japanese golden leaf technique.
I Can already see their hours of work flying away in the wind... But... It was definitely worth it!! So pretty < 3
