Make Paper Flowers from Old Maps, Books or Magazines (in Aid of Hucknall Wildlife Group)

Celebrate Earth Day with a relaxed, creative paper flowers workshop in Hucknall, while also raising funds for Hucknall Wildlife Group.
The workshop takes place on Thursday 23rd April 2026 from 7pm to 9pm at Keycraft Garden Buildings, Hucknall. You will learn how to make decorative paper flowers using recycled materials such as old maps, books and magazines. The session is suitable for beginners, and all tools and materials are provided.
The Harrogate Spring Flower Show also begins on the same day. This felt like a lovely moment to make flowers in a more planet-friendly way. Each flower will be different. You will leave with a small handmade bouquet to take home.
Because this workshop uses reclaimed materials, the ticket price is kept lower than usual. If you have old maps, books or magazines you’d like to donate for use at this workshop, they will be very welcome.
What You’ll Make
You will create several paper flowers using simple techniques that are easy to repeat at home. No two flowers will be the same. You can experiment with colour, texture and shape using different recycled papers.
Who This Workshop Is For
This workshop is suitable for beginners and anyone who enjoys hands-on crafts, mindful making, or a couple of hours of creative “me time”. No prior experience is needed.
What’s Included
All tools and materials are provided, including recycled maps, books and magazines, glue and scissors. You’ll also receive simple guidance notes and a little extra information about Earth Day and flowers. Just bring yourself.
