Relax, unwind, and find inspiration from nature as you learn to make a rose from marbled paper

about this workshop

Explore the nature of creating paper flowers as you craft your own marbled crepe paper roses. First, you’ll ground down and dig into the process: you’ll learn about the anatomy of a rose, exploring the shape of petals, stems, and leaves, and get in touch with the materials and techniques for crafting floral paper forms, like how to dye, cut, shape, and glue crepe paper and use floral wire. 

Then, you’ll be guided through the process of making crepe paper roses from stem to bloom. Practice cutting, shaping, and gluing petals, stems, and leaves, meditating on the nature of flowers as you play with paper to craft your marbled rose. Dig into the nature of creativity and grow your connections to nature, craft, and paper through this inspiring process!
