Guided by the mother-daughter-duo of Kasiopya, reconnect with the Earth, and discover your inner creative through nature and silk. Utilizing locally grown and foraged plants, we will guide you through botanically printing your own silk scarf and table square. Your one-of-a-kind pieces will be yours to take home and cherish.

You’ll begin by choosing your botanical materials, learning of each plant's unique properties, how to prepare and arrange them on the silk, and finally, bundle wrapping your item. We will utilize leaves, flowers, and bark grown in Miami, FL, as well as outsourced eucalyptus. Your final products will be one-of-one silk depictions of the colors of Miami and the natural textures of each plant. Wear the Earth

Finished products will be ready for pick-up at the Coconut Grove Farmer's Market by May 17, or may be mailed to the participant for an additional $15 fee. Items may be held for up to 4 weeks from the workshop date.
