Join us for a unique hands-on workshop where youโll create a stunning dried flower bouquet and learn about Mizuhiki, the Japanese traditional art. Mizuhiki are decorative cords with various colors made from tightly twisted washi paper. Although Mizuhiki has traditionally been used in gift wrapping, celebrations, and symbolic ornaments to express good fortune or wishes, it has also recently become popular for accessories, interior decor, and fashion.
In this workshop, youโll learn how to make one of the most popular Japanese knots with delicate Mizuhiki cordsโa possible creation is a butterfly, symbolizing transformation and new beginnings.
For the dried flower bouquet, weโll be working with a beautiful mix of greens, including preserved greens and fresh greens that dry wonderfully over time. You can also add a pop of color of your choice to personalize your bouquet and make it uniquely yours!
Your Mizuhiki piece can be:
โจ Assembled into your bouquet for a unique finishing touch
โจ Attached outside the bouquet for a separate accent
โจ Kept as a standalone decorative piece
All materials will be provided, and no prior experience is necessary. Whether you love floral design, Japanese craftsmanship, or simply want to enjoy a creative afternoon, this workshop is for you!
