Hand Printed Wrapping Paper

What to Expect:

In this workshop, you’ll learn how to create unique, eco-friendly wrapping paper by printing patterns using natural items or by creating stamps.

Here’s What You’ll Experience:

Introduction to Nature Printing: Discover the art of nature printing, where we use leaves, fruits, and flowers—to create intricate, organic patterns on paper. No experience is needed, and we’ll show you how to experiment with different textures and shapes.

Collect & Prepare Natural Items: We’ll provide a wide range of natural materials for you to choose from—leaves with different veins and shapes, cut fruit, and various flowers. Learn how to press and prepare these items for printing to get the best results. Feel free to bring any natural items you’d like to try printing with as well!

Hands-On Printing: Dive into the process of creating your very own hand-printed wrapping paper. You’ll use eco-friendly paints, inks, and rollers to apply colour to your chosen natural items and then transfer those stunning impressions onto sheets of wrapping paper.

Customise Your Paper: Experiment with colours, layering, and repeating patterns to create your own bespoke designs. Whether you want bold, colourful prints or delicate, subtle patterns, you’ll leave with wrapping paper that’s completely one-of-a-kind.

Take Home Your Creations: By the end of the workshop, you’ll have several large sheets of personalised, eco-friendly wrapping paper that are perfect for the Christmas, birthdays, or any special occasion.

All the natural materials you’ll need (leaves, fruit, flowers, etc.)
