Let's Create a Smudge Together: a Natural Fragrance for Your Home
During this unique experience, we will learn how to create our own smudge – an ancient tool for purification and natural fragrance, inspired by the traditions of Native Americans. A smudge is a bundle of dried flowers and aromatic herbs that, when lit, releases essential oils and natural scents, helping to cleanse and perfume spaces in a gentle, natural way.
Step by step, we will discover the properties of each plant: from white sage, known for its purifying power, to the calming lavender, the energizing rosemary, and the refreshing mint. We will learn how to select and combine herbs depending on the desired effect – whether to promote relaxation, stimulate creativity, or simply to delicately scent our homes
Each participant will craft their own smudge bundle by hand, weaving flowers and twigs using simple yet evocative techniques. It will be a creative moment, immersed in the fragrances of nature, where we rediscover the value of craftsmanship and the beauty of slow, mindful gestures. We will also learn how to properly use the smudge at home, respecting its ritual origins and with a spirit of connection and gratitude toward nature. An experience suitable for everyone, perfect for those who wish to bring a touch of natural wellbeing into their daily lives or simply enjoy a moment of relaxation and creativity. At the end of the experience, you will take home not only your handmade smudge but also new knowledge, scents, and inspiration to integrate into your everyday life.
