Would you like to learn to make a beautiful Icelandic Poppy from high quality Italian crepe paper for you to enjoy for years to come?

Catherine Oxley from BOUQ Paper Flowers leads the workshop. No experience is required.

The wonderful Icelandic summer with all its colours and midnight sun was Catherine’s inspiration to create the Icelandic Poppy for this workshop. Catherine will guide you through the process of creating an organic and realistic representation of this gorgeous bloom.

Catherine Oxley is the artist behind BOUQ Paper Flowers and has over 25 years in the fashion, television and film industry. Catherine has been featured on Canada’s #1 morning show, City TV’s Cityline and in editorials such as La Botanica (NY | Milan),

Food & Drink, Wedding Bells and Today’s Bride magazines.

The workshop will be held in English and is free of charge. Please register below (from September 1st).

All of the materials are provided for this workshop. Working with premium Italian crepe papers from Carte Fini, however we ask that you please bring a sharp pair of scissors. A limited number of scissors will be available for purchase on site.
