BOUQUET BOOT CAMP
As a floral designer and shop owner for more than a dozen years, I have been approached from people from every possible line of work who tell me that their secret dream is to become a floral designer.
One of the wonderful things about working with flowers is that it is tactile and therapeutic as well as artistic. It engages all the senses and there is a tremendous feeling of accomplishment that comes from taking pretty flowers and turning them into even more interesting floral sculpture.
It is my belief that the basic skills of flower arranging can be easily taught to just about everyone.
Our Bouquet Bootcamps are kept small in size to ensure individual attention (6-8 participants maximum).
Prices for all bootcamps are $100/pp for a 2-3 hour class. In addition, a $75 materials charges is additional and covers the cost of the flower and containers used. Participants will make 2-3 arrangements in each class and will take their arrangements home at the end of the class.
