We were all obsessed with these clay mandrakes and did not get photos of all the OTHER activities happening at our Herbology event (miniature plant/flower paintings, floral picture frames, mix your own tea, and several herbology quizzes). Please enjoy the mandrakes the teens made:

We used acrylic paint pens to decorate terra cotta pots at this fun teen event. Participants also picked out some seeds and potting soil to plant up their pots at home. They turned out great!

Teens created some adorable garden rocks using acrylic paint and paint pens. Not sure if any of these will actually end up in a garden! Here’s what they made:

Teens got the opportunity to make their own, temporary, henna body art AND received a design from artist, Rebecca Huston (Heathen Ink Tattoo). Henna paste is used to stain the skin and designs last a few days to a few weeks. Enjoy some of Rebecca’s and their artwork:

We used our diamond painting skills to bedazzle book covers (and some other stuff, too) at this fun event! If you haven’t tried it, diamond painting is relaxing and fun.

Using a variety of materials, including moss, bark, stones, acrylic paint, and tiny plastic trees, teens created their very own enchanted forests within the confines of a shoebox. In these magical places rabbits and foxes and hedgehogs became friends and foraged together. So impressed with everyone’s creativity!
