Create & Curate: Handcrafted Blooms & Pearls
Create & Curate: Handcrafted Blooms & Pearls
A collaborative workshop by NUNCHI & Summer Space Studios
Join us for a creative, hands-on experience where floral artistry meets sustainable design. In this special edition of Create & Curate, you’ll craft your own one-of-a-kind piece by blending delicate handcrafted paper orchids with upcycled fashion jewelry.
🌸 What You’ll Create:
Guests will choose between two unique designs:
A wearable paper orchid hair accessory
A versatile faux pearl-strung necklace that doubles as a bag charm
Each guest will take home a finished, custom-made piece—completely designed by you.
🌺 The Orchid Process
Work with pre-made white doublette paper orchid petals handcrafted by Summer Space Studios.
Customize your bloom by painting the petals and sealing them with Mod Podge for a glossy, lasting finish (30-minute dry time).
While your petals dry, move on to the pearl design portion with NUNCHI.
Once dry, assemble your flower with a pearl center and attach it to your final piece.
⛓️💥 The Pearl & Chain Process
Deconstruct vintage fashion jewelry to create your own pearl-strung accessory.
Choose from a curated selection of faux pearls, gemstones, chains, and charms.
Build a unique piece with guidance from the NUNCHI team—perfect as a necklace or a statement bag charm.
All tools and materials are provided—you bring the creativity.
No experience necessary. Just come ready to craft, connect, and take home something beautiful.
NUNCHI is a Korean-American female founded jewelry brand powered by culture, self-expression, and impact. Our mission is rooted in the Korean concept of “Nunchi”, awareness harnessed into actions that promote balance and harmony. We channel our “Nunchi” to embrace a fewer, better philosophy and create meaningful pieces that embody identity and connection. We’re not your average jewelry brand - our product design, authentic storytelling, and creative partnerships champions what is right, unapologetically takes up space, and confidently expresses our identity.
Founded in 2018 by Poy Twitchsri-Granati, Summer Space began as a personal creative challenge—a commitment to crafting one paper flower each day for 100 days. What started as a passion project soon blossomed into a thriving studio specializing in bespoke paper flowers, from single stems and bouquets to large-scale floral artworks for special occasions, brand activations, and event décor.
Beyond creating exquisite paper flowers, Summer Space offers immersive workshops for private gatherings and corporate team-building, inviting participants to explore the artistry of paper flower making. At its heart, the studio’s mission is to inspire self-expression through creativity, encouraging everyone to “bloom in their element.
20% of the proceeds from ticket sales will support KACF:
The Korean American Community Foundation® (KACF) was founded in 2002 by a group of Korean American leaders in New York with a simple idea: philanthropy by and for the community.
The goal was to address the chronic underinvestment in the Korean immigrant community by raising funds for programs serving under-resourced Korean American individuals and families, while also mobilizing community members to engage in a culture of giving.
