It’s British cherry season!
This designer piece for tomorrow and Saturday’s Flower Workshop proves that the simple beauty of 3 natural living materials does not ‘have to’ include flowers!
Yum!

Cool Easter Flower Workshop

22/03/2024

Happy Easter! 🐣
Today (and tomorrow) at the Flower School we created a cool P***y Willow Easter egg 🥚.. all natural free-range beauty..
13 ladies today and 12 tomorrow.. good thing is that the stunning Chincherinchee flowers will be well open next weekend (Easter) and will easily last 2.5 - 3 weeks… the p***y willow will dry and it can then be placed on a patio
Good value right?
Come and be creative with cool flowers.. see workshops and dates:

Paphiopedilum X Leeanum and Leucospermum ‘Soleil’ - Latin botanical beauties! …Lady’s slipper orchid and pin-cushion both at the height of their flowering season and quality!
Ps - I did study 4 years to become a Dutch Master Florist - I’ve worked and taught in Holland, Japan, Taiwan, Hong-Kong, Belgium,France, USA, Canada and Barbados- I ‘ve won Gold and Florist of the Year at Chelsea, I was Artistic Director at Wi******er Cathedral Flower Festival, I’ve won First - the Creativity Award and the ‘Most Innovative Exhibit’ at the World Flower Arranging Show’ and I’ve been the floral design supplier for a well-known theatre composer - you’d think I was God’s gift to the flower world…
Naaaah.. I’m not!
But I sometimes want to say that to folks who, when I tell them I’m a florist ask me if you can study for that 😂
… still love teaching x

Christmas Door Wreath Workshops
All completed.. just thought I’d share pics of the different workshops - I think the different natural greens (varied between 8 and 11) win out (WINTER!), but what do you think?
The decorated ones also look cool though right?!

How do you make an eco friendly Christmas wreath? I joined a Gloucestershire workshop to find out what's involved.

Autumn 🍁… its’ fruits are pretty magnificent too! Crab apples -
lots of them.. 180 stems of 90cm Dutch artisan grower gorgeousness
… 28 lovely ladies crafted and designed Malus ‘Red Sentinel’, small Malus apples and Dianthus ‘Kiwi Cool’ into a designer ring of natural beauty
All individual - all independently stunning 🍎
Looks easy right?… simple beauty isn’t easy to achieve! There was a fair bit of graft, but the results were totally worth it..
the COOL thing (never the best thing) is that everyone will be enjoying their designs for the next 2 -3 months
