Harvest bouquet

Plein air ! - Craft cycle

As an alternative to fresh flowers and plants, dried flowers are a sustainable decorating practice because they require no water to survive, and no special maintenance.

Emma Bruschi brings forgotten objects back to life through shared experiences.

In this workshop, you’ll learn how to make a harvest bouquet from rye and wheat straw, with an introduction to hand-weaving and spinning.

Symbols of fertility, devotion, love and good luck, harvest bouquets can be hung at home or given as gifts to loved ones.

Workshop linked to the craft cycle

Discover and learn a wide range of skills from creators who are passionate about passing them on.
