In this workshop Monarch Beauty Farm teaches the foundations of flower and leaf pressing to capture vibrant and beautifully preserved botanicals.
In this hands-on class, participants will create their own Floralscapes using hand-pressed flowers, grown locally, using sustainable farming practices. We'll use 6x6" or 3x6 " reclaimed tiles, available in a variety of colors and sizes as a backdrop. You will take home a beautiful hanging botanical art piece you can display in your home or give as a gift to a loved one. All materials are included.
Workshop lasts approximately 90 minutes. No experience necessary. Grab a friend or join the workshop solo.
Maru Braemer of Monarch Beauty Farm has been growing flowers locally in Chicago for 3 years. Her urban gardens are a source of long-lasting, and sustainable florals for local residents, as well as a home for local and migrant pollinators.
