LEARN THE ART OF ARRANGING FLOWERS
Join Lauren and Louisina in their bright, flower filled studio for an in-depth
masterclass on how to make 3x intricate wearable designs working with fresh flowers to create beautiful floral accessories. Learn how to work with fresh flowers to make a boutonniere, a hair comb and a wristlet in our signature garden-gathered and delicate style without the use of wires, glue or plastic, using 100% natural and compostable materials and our innovative, signature techniques. On this workshop, you will also learn how to make floral accessories in advance of events keeping them hydrated and fresh for up to 72 hours.
Our flower school near Glasgow delivers a programme of sustainable floristry classes and courses that celebrate seasonal flowers, combining the art of garden-style flower arranging with practical tuition on sustainable, foam-free and plastic-free mechanics. We provide support and inspiration in developing your own floral style and encourage you to develop confidence and flair by building your experience. By allowing yourself to be attuned to nature and its imperfections, your arrangements will in turn be more authentic and more beautiful.
Each participant will have an exciting and varied selection of our seasonal, farm-grown flowers and foliage to work with. Our workshops always use our own farm-grown flowers. We don't use any imported flowers, floral foam or plastic in any of our work or teaching.
Delicious refreshments will be served to keep the creativity and energy flowing. All refreshments, materials, flowers, and the use of tools and sundries are included in the price of this workshop.
