A Jar of Love — Mother’s Day Herbarium Workshop

Hosted at Punggol One Community Centre | By Mystic Gardens

💖 Overview
This special Mother’s Day workshop was more than a craft session — it was a celebration of love, family, and timeless memories. The Mystic Gardens was invited by Punggol One CC to lead a meaningful botanical experience where families came together to create herbarium jars as heartfelt gifts.

Every jar told a story — sealed in oil, wrapped with a golden thread, and finished with a personal note — making each piece a cherished keepsake preserved in glass.

🌸 Workshop Highlights
✨ Families of all ages gathered to slow down and reconnect through hands-on creativity
✨ Participants created keepsakes using preserved strawflowers, lavender, baby’s breath, fern, and Phalaris
✨ A true multi-generational activity, welcoming both young children and elderly parents
✨ Each jar was sealed with clear botanical oil, tied with a golden thread, and completed with a personal message for mum
