Today I am going to be at the new Flow Craft Café running a workshop to make Japanese flowers. I am really quite excited about this
It is 'fully booked' in two senses - one, that every space is taken , and two, that these flowers are made from pages of old discarded books.
As well as preparing the materials for each participant to make their own bouquet of six blooms, I have also been putting together packs for my 31:13 shop..
I will let you know how the workshop goes.
I hope it goes well! It sounds a delightful workshop and well done for spreading the Ang magic! Am sure you will be a success! Kxx

DeleteI learned to make these a couple of years ago and we also use old maps and road atlases in the group. I managed so gather enough bamboo skewers from friends to use a the stems for each of my groups. We also used them as parcel toppers by glueing carefully onto a small piece of card. I find them mindful to make and people love receiving them as a gift. I would think your kits will sell well-perhaps take some for sale at the class? Happy crafting. Catriona
ReplyDeleteI live the ideas about maps and parcel toppers. I shall share those with the group. Yes, I've put some packs in my bag in case people want to buy a kit to take home or give to a friend
DeleteI hope the workshop goes well and that everyone has a good time. Those flowers look lovely. Love FD xx

DeleteI am sure the work shop will go well and people will be happy to make such lovely flowers! Some years ago I was at a gathering where we made angels from old books.
ReplyDeleteOld (unwanted) books are a great resource
DeleteWhat a lovely idea! Your creativity never ceases to amaze me! So great to recycle the old pages like this.
