What the workshop looks like

From discovering the material to making your own piece.

Participants explore crepe paper as a material for decorative flowers. We begin by cutting strips and preparing simple elements.

The facilitator shows how to shape petals, build the centre and wrap the stem. Each person chooses colours and creates an individual composition.

Paper flowers developed in many local forms. We name a specific region only when the workshop follows a documented pattern.
