Well dressing

Well dressing is a tradition where people make pictures out of flowers and put them on wooden frames that they put in wells. Picture it like a big painting using flowers instead of paint. This tradition started a long time ago in England when people wanted to thank the gods for giving them clean water from the wells. They would decorate the wells with flowers to show their gratitude. Today, people still do well dressing as a way to honor their heritage and bring their community together. It takes a lot of work and creativity to make the pictures out of different colored flowers, but the end result is always beautiful. Next time you see a pretty picture in a well, remember that it's called well dressing, and it's a special way to say thank you for something that we often take for granted, like clean water.
