Please join us for a unique and elegant experience that blends the beauty of a local flower farm and the ancient art of flower pressing.
No previous experience necessary or artistic skills required.
Enjoy a relaxing afternoon with other flower lovers and delight in wonder and beauty of the garden and interact with flowers in a way you have never done before.
This will be an afternoon of magic and creativity. This fusion is unlike any other workshop that has been offered locally. You will begin your afternoon walking the flower paths with Shawna as she talks about the flowers and her farm. You will have time to walk the farm individually, soaking in all the beauty from the fresh flowers, and thinking about what flowers you will want to press. Once your flowers have been picked, you will return to a beautiful table adorned with vases of flowers, custom made flower presses, and custom appetizers, perfect for a special day.
Next, you will learn about the process of flower pressing using traditional Japanese pressing techniques. Daphne will discuss the best plants to work with, show you how to prep flowers for the press, how to deconstruct a flower, tips and tricks of flower pressing, and a short demonstration on reconstruction of petals.
You will spend the remainder of the workshop pressing a composition of flowers of your choice. This is the only flower pressing workshop offered on the west coast.
The workshop date has been set to align with the summer solstice. One of the ways you can connect with the solstice is to decorate with summer flowers, attend a gathering, and set an intention for the summer season. They say that when you harness the energy of the solstice sun, you open yourself to creativity and positivity. The solstice is a time for renewal, rebirth,
and self-love.
We will end this workshop with oracle reading, for those interested. Oracle readings can be used as a tool for self-reflection and personal insight. This type of mystical
reading provides a sense of bigger energy and what is going on in our physical and spiritual realms. We hope that you will stay and enjoy this special way to end our solstice workshop.
