Family Art Project: The Language of Flowers

Floriography is the art of using flowers to communicate a message. Use egg cartons, toilet paper rolls and other upcycled materials to create your own bouquet. Place your arrangement in an embellished vase of your own making, illustrated with a sentiment you’d like to share.
