A dozen eco-friendly floral design classes that will help learn how to
Here is another 'mega course' bundle full of 12 workshops that cover how to prepare your flowers and then how to design them in some of the most common and essential ways for the custom florist.
Oriental Lilies
In this class, we teach you all about when to buy lilies, how to process them, prevent pollen stains and of course, how to design with them step-by-step!
Long-Lasting Lilacs
Lilacs are a lovely spring flower with a wonderful scent, but they have "woody stems." In this course, you'll learn how to work with them and design in a tall vase.
Forsythia Blooms
We teach you how to prepare the thick stems of forsythia blooms to force them to open in a vase during this lovely spring-themed class.
Ranunculus Vase
In this eco-friendly vase design, we teach you our "Gather, Drop, and Fill" technique of arranging flowers that can be adapted for a variety of vases and flowers!
Mint + Freesia
We show you how to add flowers like pincushion protea and freesia with fragrant mint in this vase-only design with no other fancy underwater architecture or mechanics.
Basket of Proteas
We show you how to blend two types of protea and two types of leucadendron in this Australian-based vase design in a beautiful tall basket.
Dramatic Mini Callas
We show you how to "swirl" the stems in this gorgeous design featuring fabulous mini dark purple calla lilies.
Oversized Peonies
We show you how to design in a large footed container with chicken wire as architecture and large white fragrant peonies.
Foam-Free Orchids
We use a nest of natural raffia to hold dendrobium orchids in a hand-held bouquet that can be also displayed in a vase. This lasted over three weeks in our studio!
Soft Linear Vase Florals
Learn how to design in a vase without any floral foam, chicken wire or pin frogs. We also show you how to create an artificial stem for the orchid bloom
Summer's End Dahlias
How to design in a footed vase of chicken wire with dahlias, roses, foxglove, scabiosa, and more!
Crystal Vase Roses
We teach you the "grid method" of designing in this eco-friendly vase design that we did as a tribute to Queen Elizabeth 2 to match a design featured in a photo taken by the legendary Annie Leibovitz.
