Floral Herbarium Making - VEND Annerley Workshop - Saturday May 2nd 2026 - 6pm

Floral Herbarium Workshop
In Collaboration with Vend Marketplace Annerley

Join us for a 2-hour Floral Herbarium Workshop where creativity meets minimal-waste floristry. This hands-on experience invites you to slow down, get creative, and transform recycled and repurposed materials into a timeless botanical keepsake.

Using a curated selection of hand-dried florals rescued from the Helena Rose floral archive, you will learn how to carefully arrange and preserve botanicals inside a recycled glass vessel filled with a clear oil-based liquid. This workshop celebrates the beauty of giving florals a second life rather than letting them go to waste.

Students will also have the opportunity to decorate and personalise the lid of their bottle using decoupage techniques, adding another creative layer to their finished piece.

Each herbarium becomes a unique artwork to display in your home or gift to someone special.

Perfect for floral lovers, creatives, and anyone who enjoys mindful, hands-on experiences.
