Please visit Flowers of Lesotho and many other great vendors at the Wedgwood Art Festival just north of the U-district in Seattle this weekend. We will have our note cards, buttons, and aloe balm, as well as an education and art activity booth for kids to make their own cut paper flowers! Our plan is to send the flowers made by kids at the festival back to the children at St. Camillus in Lesotho who inspired us to start this non-profit.
The Festival is this Saturday and Sunday from 10am - 5pm at the corner of 35th Ave NE and NE 80th St in Wedgwood. We look forward to seeing you there!
