The garland has been used throughout centuries by different cultures for both celebrations and spiritual purposes. It symbolized purity, beauty, peace and love.
A garland can also be used to decorate your creative or sacred space with positive intentions. In this fun and unique workshop you’ll get to blend handmade paper beads, drift wood, found objects and other findings into a beautiful, handcrafted hanging garland.
This artistically rich and tactile project will be the perfect addition to your art wall or studio.
Combining Gelli plate prints (or painted papers), fabric scraps and craft cord, you’ll create interesting and unique paper beads for your garland.
You’ll also incorporate a little hidden slot to hold affirmations, your favorite quote, prayers or secret messages. Spend a day with me creating something magical and creative.
