Learn to make your own Flower Press Book!
Saturday, July 12, from 9-11:30am
Embrace the beauty of the season with the timeless tradition of flower pressing! Join us for a laid-back beginner bookbinding class where you’ll craft your very own Traveler’s Flower Press Book—a perfect companion for capturing nature’s blooms.
If you have never made a book, don’t worry. This is a beginner book, with no stitching and step-by-step instructions along the way. All supplies are included.
This beautiful book features sturdy wooden covers adorned with fine papers from around the world, a bookcloth spine, and six pages dedicated to pressing your flowers. Its compact size and ribbon closure make it the ideal addition to your pack or purse for a scenic walk or hike.
Every step of the way, Claire Formilan from Beyond the Fold Paperie will guide you with expert instruction, teaching you how to create your book and sharing her top flower pressing tips. Plus, we’ll have plenty of time to press a few flowers together to kickstart your collection!
You’ll leave with your new handmade Travelers Flower Press Book, flowers that you press, and a fresh joy for connecting to nature.
