Introduction to Floristry
If you are new to floristry or have a love of flowers? Enjoy this short course learning to create a hand tied bouquet, display flowers in a vase, package and wire flowers, and create a floral display suitable for a gift, to enjoy at home or for an event.
This is a relaxed and enjoyable course where you will be guided through some skills and techniques of floristry, such as selection and care of suitable plant materials and their use in traditional, seasonal and contemporary designs. You will be guided through identifying, selecting and using appropriate flowers and foliage, a variety of containers and gift wrapping.
This course is ideal if you have a love of flowers and are interested in enjoying flowers in your own home or possibly thinking of a career in floristry but would like to do a taster course before committing to a long term or examinable course.

If your payment is over £120 then you can spread the payment out. This is done via direct debit and is generally 3 payments spread over 3 months. The first payment must be made at the time of booking to confirm your place on the course. On occasion we are able to set up payment schedules over a longer period of time but this cannot extend beyond the end date of a course.
Please note: Once a direct debit is set up you must not cancel it unless you have been in contact with us first and we have confirmed that it is alright to do so. If you cancel without our permission you will immediately be invoiced for the full amount. It is important to understand that direct debit is not a method of paying for part of the course, just a way of spreading the full cost of the course over a number of months.
