Hands-On Floral Design Workshop
A two-hour immersion in seasonal flowers, from first stem to finished arrangement
Your Workshop Journey
Build-A-Vase
Your foundation in floral design
We start at the beginning. You will learn how to prep your vessel, create a simple grid to support your stems, and build a lush, full arrangement from the ground up. We will talk about choosing a color story, creating rhythm with different textures, and knowing when an arrangement feels finished. By the end of this session, you will have a gorgeous vase arrangement and the confidence to recreate it at home.
What you'll learn
- How to condition and prep fresh-cut stems for long-lasting arrangements
- Techniques for building structure in a vase using a flower grid
- The fundamentals of balance, proportion, and movement in floral design
Compote Centerpiece
Elevate your skills with a classic form
Now that you have the fundamentals down, we move into a more structured design. The compote centerpiece is a timeless form, perfect for dinner tables, mantels, or anywhere you want a low, lush focal point. You will learn how to work with a compote vessel and floral foam alternative, layering greens and blooms to create that abundant, just-picked-from-the-garden feeling that makes a room come alive.
What you'll learn
- How to create lush, organic arrangements with a garden-gathered look
- Working with a compote vessel and floral foam alternatives
Scraps & Bud Vases
BonusThe art of using every last petal
Using the leftover stems, buds, and bits from our first two arrangements, we will create a collection of petite bud vases. It is a lesson in seeing beauty in what might otherwise be overlooked, and a reminder that even the smallest bloom deserves a moment. You will leave with an armful of tiny arrangements perfect for windowsills, bedside tables, or gifts.
What you'll learn
- Creative ways to use every last stem, scrap, and bud
What to Expect
- All flowers, tools, and vessels are provided
- Light refreshments will be available
- Wear something you do not mind getting a little water or greenery on
- Small groups to ensure plenty of one-on-one guidance
- A relaxed, encouraging atmosphere; this is about joy, not perfection
What You Take Home
You will leave with an armful of arrangements and the know-how to keep creating long after the workshop ends.
