Looking to express your creativity in a new way? Want to create a showstopping floral display for your next gathering or simply enjoy your garden blooms in a more intentional, artful way?
In this workshop, you'll learn the basics of floral design so that you can confidently create your own bouquets and arrangements anytime!

Together, we will explore:
🌼 How to harvest flowers and where to purchase quality blooms
🌼 What makes a good cut flower (and what you might already have growing)
🌼 How to process and prepare cut flowers for arranging
🌼 Tips to keep your flowers fresh longer
🌼 The five elements of floristry design
🌼 How to create a spiral bouquet (you will make your own in class!)
🌼 How to create a centerpiece arrangement (you will make this too!)
All materials, including fresh-cut flowers, will be provided. You'll leave with your own handmade arrangement and a vessel to take home, plus the techniques and confidence to continue creating on your own!
