Botanical Confetti

This is one of those slow, seasonal crafts to usher in autumn and put to use the beautiful strawflower heads you've grown and collected this summer.

Dried Flower Valentines
Maddie and I made these sweet little notes to give to teachers and grandmas on Valentine's Day. Little fabric pockets hold a message and the card is topped with dried flowers and herbs we preserved from our summer garden.
