About

Make a flower press and use pressed flora to to create a delicate lantern. Be inspired by the magical medieval herb garden at Pontefract Castle, and the gardens of the past.


Use a variety of materials to make your own spellbinding lantern, including pre-pressed flowers. Give your new flower press a go and capture some of our herb garden specimens.
