You will learn how to develop your skills in floristry to make beautiful bouquets. You will also learn how to display flowers creatively in a vase and create floral displays suitable for a gift to enjoy at home or for an event.

You will learn how to select and care for a wide variety of plant materials and how to use these in traditional, seasonal and contemporary designs.

You will be given advice about what type of containers and gift wrapping might be appropriate. You will also learn how to package and transport flowers to prevent damage and wire flowers to form more complex structures.

PLEASE NOTE, THIS IS A FORTNIGHTLY CLASS.

You may like to bring a note book to class

All fresh flowers and foliage are included in the course fee for week 1. For the remaining weeks you may choose from where to source your flowers and foliage and take to the class.
The tutor will inform you of any themes or designs that will be covered in the remaining weeks so you can purchase accordingly.
You may wish to bring your own floristry snippers to the class but the tutor will take some floristry tools that you are welcome to borrow during the class.

For the first week you can either bring a round container with a diameter of approximately 10cm–15cm to display your flowers, or if you do not have one and don't wish to purchase one seperately then you may borrow one from the tutor and you will be asked for cash deposit of £5 which will be fully refunded when the container is returned.
