Mother's Day Flower Workshop




Well, we had a fantastic afternoon on Saturday. Some real natural talent and creativity! I encouraged everyone to use their own design style by choosing accessories and colours for their arrangements and the outcome was fantastic. We had such a range of designs!

See above for the arrangement I demonstrated and our group photo with all our creations!

Next Workshop is in May. Check our Facebook page for other Northampton Flower Workshops, Flower Arranging Courses, and Floral Design Demos.

Exciting!

Very excited to see how many of you view my Blog from around the world! Will try and keep it a bit more interesting from now on - I have been writing these posts wondering if anyone EVER reads or views any of it... Apparently 3 of my viewers were from Cameroon, amazing!!

Will update after the Mother's Day Workshop this weekend.... very excited :-) Then next weekend it's a gorgeous purple/orange/green wedding in Coventry. The photos are gonna be niiicccceee....

Spring delights!






Have been enjoying the yellow flowers of spring with these arrangements...

Mostly looking forward to this weekend's Mother's Day Flower Workshop! I am also planning further Floral Design, Flower Arranging, Floristry Courses and Workshops over the next year. Check out my events on my Facebook Page. Planned so far - Summer Flower Arranging Workshop, Vintage Flower Arranging Workshop, Floral Design Day Course and Halloween Flower Workshop.

Also, I will be running a Boutonniere Demonstration and Workshop at 78 Derngate on 9th June 2011. This will be followed by glorious Cream Tea in the Gallery! Lovely!

Flower Workshop!




My workshop is now all up and running, it's soooo fantastic. Minty green and spacious, it's a paradise to work in. I love it best when the sun's out and I can have the windows and doors open - it's like working outside with mother nature herself! Which is just how floristry should be in my opinion...... :-D

Mother's Day Flower Workshop




After the success and fantastic feedback of the Christmas Workshops, I shall be running an afternoon Mother's Day Workshop for you to create your very own Mother's Day flower gift! Or come along with your Mum and spend the afternoon together creating and arrangement each :-)

You will be making a modern luxury box flower arrangement perfect as a table centrepiece or mantel decoration. You will be using Oasis foam and will learn ...some basic wiring skills too!

The arrangement will last for up to 2 weeks (as long as it's taken care of!) so it will give your Mum weeks of happiness!

Men and women welcome - men don't be afraid to get girly, it's for your Mum afterall :-)

Total cost of the workshop including all materials, demonstration, afternoon tea and (homemade) cakes: £35.00

BOOK YOUR PLACE NOW:

Look forward to seeing you all!


*UPDATE* 21st Feb:
I have had some requests for Mother's/Daughters to come along and work on the arrangement as a pair - this is fine too, you will have the materials and equipment for one person but simply create the arrangement together. £35.00 per pair.
