Amy Shelton, artistic director at Honeyscribe, said the scheme helped to break down barriers and welcomed the families from Afghanistan into the community.
Ms Shelton said: “I gave them all some flower presses and asked if they’d be involved with this with project, not knowing if they would be.
“Week after week they came in and we had a lot of fun.”
Braunton Library supervisor Sarah Bushell said the project had “amplified” the role libraries can have in bringing people together.
“Our staff meet many customers every day who feel isolated and lonely, and projects like these can really have an impact,” she added.
