Give a retired hardcover book a second life as botanical art! With instruction from Olga from Lucious Leaves, you'll fold and sculpt its pages, then design into them with dried flowers, grasses, moss and fragrant herbs like lavender, rosemary and eucalyptus. Each piece also gets a hidden scent element that can be refreshed with a drop of essential oil, so your book stays fragrant long after class.
You'll leave with a one-of-a-kind sculpture that's beautiful all year, plus a few removable seasonal accents for fall.
