Hi there fellow gardeners, garden art lovers, and those who have attended previous workshops or expressed interest in doing so--

Rebecca and I invite you and your friends to a Leaf Casting Workshop this month on Friday September 14, 10-1130 in my backyard studio in Medfield MA.

We will provide all materials needed to create your own leaf casting-- including the leaves.
Or bring one you would like to use from your own garden.

These leaf castings are made from a hypertufa blend of concrete, perlite and peat moss. The castings are winter hardy and are sealed to survive our New England weather.

You will go home with your leaf casting ready to carry in a cardboard tray to finish curing, and instructions for painting and sealing your works of art.

Use them as a bird or butterfly water station, or as a drain spout diverter to prevent washout. Providing color and texture, these make lovely focal points in the garden and make wonderful gifts for the gardeners in your lives!!.

The cost of the workshop is $40 and includes everything you need to make a beautiful leaf casting. This is a messy craft, so please wear work-worthy clothes.
