Design and Hammer Your Own Bandana
Participants receive a pre-mordanted bandana and use flowers and greens to arrange patterns, then transfer those botanical motifs by hammering — a hands-on, stress-relieving process that leaves each piece unique.
Flowers, Greens, and a Pre-Mordanted Base
The workshop supplies flowers, greens and at least one pre-mordanted bandana per registration so participants can focus on layout and technique without pre-prep; additional bandanas may be available for purchase.
A Rolling, All-Ages Session
This is a rolling workshop with staggered start times to accommodate attendees of all ages; organizers stagger slots so guests should register and arrive at their assigned start time.
