Leaf bashing - a fun activity for home or at your outdoor setting.
Leaf bashing, also known as Hapa Zome, is the process of creating natural prints by beating fresh leaf matter into cloth.
Leaf bashing is an activity you can do in any outdoor space, however big or small. You can even do it inside with natural materials you have collected while outside - but we'd encourage you to do it outdoors if you can.
