What is a better gift than something that’s not just beautiful, but truly meaningful? In this creative workshop, participants will get to experiment with paper cutting, drawing and collage to create a personalised paper bouquet inspired by our folklore trail Nature’s Prescription for Joy, which explores how the theme of love is symbolised by a variety plants from different continents. You will leave with a handcrafted bouquet that you can then gift to your loved ones, or even to yourself!
