Create unique, nature-inspired prints on fabric using dried flowers and plant-based extracts. Learn which flowers and botanicals produce the boldest results on cotton and bamboo fibers, along with practical tips for preserving and drying blooms for future projects. The workshop will cover techniques including scouring and mordanting fabric to achieve vibrant, lasting designs.
