    This Mothers day, spend some quality time making a “flora press” bowl.

    Bring a special flower or plant to this workshop, or find one from my garden, and we’ll press them into your bowl.

    You then choose a colour for your pattern and/or bowl to paint on.

    4-6 Weeks later your bowls will then be ready for pickup.

    Please bring an apron or some clothes you don’t mind getting messy.

    This workshop needs no experience, Ages 16 and up.

    Please contact me if you have any questions regarding this workshop.
