Come to this fun-filled flower hammering workshop where you will create beautiful designs on an eco-friendly tote bag. Flower hammering, also known as leaf pounding or tataki-zome, is a traditional art form where the colors and patterns of leaves and flowers are transferred onto fabric or paper by pounding them with a hammer or mallet. The Cherokee tribe, particularly Cherokee women, were known to use this technique to decorate fabric.

Program brought to you by the Extension Master Gardeners of Cherokee County
