Duration: 3 hours Price: £75 per guest Teacher: Ada Haygarth, The Flower Arranging School
Overview
Curious about floristry but not quite ready to commit to a multi-day course? Our three-hour Taster Workshop is the perfect way to dip your toes into the world of floral design. Set in our welcoming Nantwich studio, this session is all about relaxing, getting creative, and learning a few professional tricks of the trade.
What you’ll do: Led by Ada – who brings extensive professional experience designing floral arrangements for Film, Television, and Weddings—this hands-on class is designed to give you a taste of different floristry techniques in a short amount of time.
During the workshop, you will learn the basics of stem preparation, conditioning, and colour matching. Ada will then guide you step-by-step as you create three distinct floral designs. While seasonal materials dictate exactly what we make, you can typically expect to craft a beautiful hand-tied posy, a charming jam-jar or mini-vase arrangement, and a delicate wired buttonhole.
It’s a wonderful, immersive snapshot of what floristry is all about. You’ll leave not only with three beautiful creations to brighten up your home, but also with a sense of pride and a great foundation if you decide to pursue your new hobby further!
