Life In Dominica: Relax and Create Pressed Flower Art with me @SimplyGrethel
Unwind with me as we create beautiful artwork in nature on the island of Dominica. You'll love picking wild flowers, getting them dried and then seeing the pressed flowers turn into a magical piece that you can keep for years to come.
I had the pleasure of opening and using most of the dried flowers from the video with children at one of our most beautiful eco resorts and we created awesome art pieces. The artwork in this video was created by me using mostly dried flowers purchased along with my dry-press kit. As I dry more flowers from our wild garden, I will create more pieces for you. Umm, I could use your bouquet too :)
Let's do this in Dominica with your sister in nature :) Grethel

      Thanks for viewing and for asking. It was sad to lose so many trees here however our soil is fertile and we are replanting ever so often - especially fruit trees. I did lose a brother due to heavy flood waters. Otherwise, I guess we have learnt some serious lifelong lessons from Hurricane Maria. Have you visited the island? Thx again!
