ABSTRACT:
A decorative article for displaying themes that may be used in decorating, educating, or advertising. The decorative article comprises a base, one or more frontal portions, and one or more flexible branch elements connecting each of the frontal portions to the base. The branch elements suspend the frontal elements in front of the base. Air current or other motion attributed to external forces can induce the frontal elements into a random bouncing motion on the branch elements. The base and the frontal portions have predetermined shapes and are imprinted with predetermined graphical designs. The base, frontal portions and branch elements are created from thin, flexible and preferably transparent plastic material which make the graphical designs viewable from multiple directions.
