Our beginner floristry workshops are designed for those who are curious about flowers and would love to learn in a relaxed, supportive setting. These sessions are ideal if you’ve never worked with flowers before, or if you’d like to build confidence and understand the basics in a calm and enjoyable way.
What these workshops are about
Beginner workshops focus on the foundations of floristry, without pressure or expectation.
You’ll learn how to work with seasonal flowers, understand colour and form, and create a beautiful arrangement to take home.
Classes are hands on, gently guided and unhurried, allowing time to ask questions, practise techniques and enjoy the process.
This is about learning and enjoyment, not perfection.
