Description

Make your own paper by hand, then create a personalized botanical design rooted in time-honored papermaking traditions.
After making your own sheet of paper, leave the workshop and head to the adjoining garden. The scents of the flowers, the vibrant colors, and the variety of foliage spark your imagination. As you stroll through the garden, you observe, select, and pick the plants that will make up your creation. A flower catches your eye, a leaf captivates you with its shape, a petal reveals an unexpected shade… each element is chosen with care. Back in the workshop, your still-damp paper becomes a true canvas for creativity. With delicacy, you arrange the flowers, playing with color harmonies, shapes, and textures. Little by little, your composition comes to life. The plants blend into the paper, revealing a unique work of art, inspired by nature and shaped by your own sensibility. You’ll leave with much more than a sheet of paper. You’ll take home a one-of-a-kind floral creation, made with your own hands, the satisfaction of having let your creativity shine, and the memory of a moment when the art of papermaking blended with the poetry of the garden. Highlights of this experience • Discover traditional papermaking techniques and the art of creating a floral arrangement on handmade paper. • Try your hand at making a sheet of paper and create a one-of-a-kind floral arrangement with your own hands. • Find your center by taking the time to observe nature, choose each flower, and give free rein to your creativity.
