A Floral Craft Project to Celebrate Herbalist Day
Herbalist Day is right around the corner (April 17!), and it’s the perfect opportunity to thank the herbalists in your life for the positive impact they’ve made on you.
Whether they crafted a nourishing recipe just for you, shared their herbal know-how, helped you find greater wellness, inspired you to connect with the plants around you, taught you directly through apprenticeship, or perhaps even motivated you indirectly through an online platform, there are so many kind-souled herbalists that share openly and from the heart. All the more reason to thank them dearly!
This simple botanical craft project is a lovely way to honor the herbalists in your community with a seasonal, inexpensive, and floral-inspired gift that’s sure to brighten their day. (It also doubles as a fabulous Mother’s Day project, so be sure to save it for future reference!)
These hanging floral cones only take a few minutes to make, and you can deliver quite a few in a single afternoon by simply hanging them on a doorknob along with a sweet thank you note.DIY Hanging Floral Cones
