No previous crafting experience is required! Even if you're a complete beginner and have never tried crafting before, you'll find our workshops accessible and fun. There are three series of workshops this term, Flowers, Accessories and Ornaments. This is one of the series. Join us and let your creativity blossom with Chenille Stems!

Workshop #1: Flowers

Part 1:“Lilies, Daisies, Roses, and Leaves”

For part 1 of this workshop, we'll dive into the world of flowers! Together, we'll craft a stunning array of blooms, including elegant lilies, cheerful daisies, and lovely roses, accompanied by decorative leaves.

Part 2:“Design your own Bouquet”

For part 2, we’ll learn how to add vibrant colors to our creations. Using the flowers, leaves, and color techniques from earlier, each student will design and assemble their very own unique bouquet. Let your creativity blossom!
