Flower Printing Workshop

Join us in a creative hands-on workshop where you will create your own unique floral artwork and natural botanical prints!
Learn how to preserve the vibrant colours of leaves and flowers by using the ‘pound and print’ technique to release their natural dyes onto fabric, paper or card. Forage our Nectar Gardens to pick some beautiful flowers and leaves, or bring your own with you if you prefer. What flowers you choose and what you design is up to you! Take your print home with you and choose what you’d like to use it for, perhaps a bookmark, your own bespoke gift card, or even frame it and hang it on a wall to decorate your home. You will leave with the knowledge and confidence to try these techniques at home and continue your floral artwork journey!
Cost: £17 (including one hot/cold drink)
