For her, making flower crowns felt like the perfect way to celebrate the healing power of creativity.<br \/>\nAround a table set with leaves, blooms and all the necessary materials, Dani guided us through the process of creating our own flower crowns. We left the workshop not only with stunning flower crowns but also with hearts full of inspiration.
