On Sunday, October 1st, 2023, in collaboration with Witch Hazel, an eco-conscious apothecary, clean beauty, and florist in Beacon, New York, we hosted a Brunch Bites & Pressed Flower Art Workshop.
The Details:
Brunch Bites and Mimosa Bar snacks were provided by Mush, Michele’s Granola, Cocojune, and Natalie's Juice Company.
In the Pressed Flowers Workshop, Jill, the Owner of Witch Hazel taught us how to:
Ideal ways to press flowers, greens, herbs, at home
Common supplies used to press and create art with flowers
Visual design techniques so our art looks intentional
The whole experience was not only beautiful but so therapeutic. Highly recommended this workshop and Jill teaches it often in her shop!
