Join Jaclyn & Genevieve for this beginner-friendly class that invites kids to explore the art of handmaking herbal gifts. Together, we’ll learn about simple ingredients and practice the basic skills needed to craft thoughtful, functional, and heartfelt herbal creations that can be enjoyed in everyday life. For Valentine’s Day, we will be crafting lip balms. Each kid will leave with a recipe to re-create their herbal craft at home as well as with 6 lip balm valentines to hand out to friends and loved ones. These lip balms will be packaged in tins and labeled with loving affirmations. Target audience is kids 6-18 years old.
