The incredible success of our evening classes inspired us to imagine a new format: the same content condensed into 2 days immersed in flowers!

Target Audience

The class is limited to

and want to improve and/or discover alternative techniques to traditional methods (working without floral foam, current color palettes, studying shapes, volumes, and textures).

Workshop Content

Day 1 Morning Part 1:

tied country bouquet

; this course will start by learning a fundamental technique - the spiral - through the creation of a rhythmic and dynamic bouquet, in a country style. We will also address how we design a color palette.

Day 1 Morning Part 2:

English-style centerpiece

; with this type of composition that is low and elongated, we will discover how to create arrangements "inserted without floral foam, thanks to ancient and eco-responsible alternatives.

Day 1 Afternoon

: flower cloud:

a first step into the world of floral suspensions and large decorations!

Day 2 Morning Part 1:

tied face bouquet

; more graphic and structured, this type of bouquet designed as a true decorative element will allow us to better understand lines and volumes. This course will also be an opportunity to deepen the spiral technique.

Day 2 Morning Part 2:

face inserted composition

; worked higher than the centerpiece, this composition is often placed at reception venues. It will give us the opportunity to work with curves, crooked, atypical stems, in short, to play with the whims of nature.

Day 2 Afternoon:

dried flower jewelry

; bracelet, boutonnière, crown are all small pieces that are created with patience and precision. Learning these so-called flower mounting techniques is very useful in floral design, especially for weddings. To vary the pleasures, we will only handle dried flowers to address this theme.

We will take this intensive workshop to cover topics that are transversal for us: color association, play of textures, shapes, and volumes. We will obviously provide you with information about the flowers used and guarantee that they have been carefully selected with a concern for environmental respect. You will leave with your creations and valuable advice to perfect your skills when your heart desires!
