Set dried flowers in resin and go home with jewelry: a Sunday workshop at Ijams Park

Three hours on Sunday afternoon in the park's Creative Series — pressed wildflowers, clear resin, a mold, and something on a chain by five o'clock.

Sunday afternoon, three hours

Self Care Sunday Yoga with Hope Irwin · 11:30 AM

Why it's a good closing move for a weekend

It's a craft that looks harder than it is and produces something durable — pressed wildflowers and fern suspended clear, a pendant that keeps one specific August inside it. Three hours is enough time to do it badly once and then well, which is the correct length for a workshop of this kind.

If you want the whole day out there

Hope Irwin's Self Care Sunday yoga runs at 11:30 the same morning at the park, which makes a full Sunday on Island Home Avenue available to anyone who wants to build one.
