This is a fun activity in Eaglesham, Glasgow
Join Lauren & Louisina in their bright, flower filled studio and immerse yourself in the wonderful world of dried flowers with all of their muted tones, colours, textures, and scent ranging from seed pods, dried grasses, foliages, sculptural forms, and dried heads. Participants will learn how to create two dried flower arrangements; a handtied bouquet and a wreath in our highly gestural, intricate, garden-inspired version of two floristry techniques. Focus on adding gestural, textured and focal flowers to weave together your own seasonal arrangements, encapsulating the full flower growing year in an everlasting circle and wild bouquet. You will finish each of the designs with your choice of our botanically dyed ribbons, wrapped in tissue and presentation box.
The workshop will also include a comprehensive session on how to dry flowers effectively including all of the knowledge, tips and tricks that we have developed over the years including effective drying and storage techniques for different types of flowers. Participants will also learn which flowers to grow for drying with a full guide on how to develop your own dried flower garden at home.
Dried flowers are timeless and beautiful and can be displayed in vases or as wreaths, clouds, swags, and much more. They bring warmth, texture, scent, and interest into your home, and are a sustainable way to enjoy flowers all year round.
If you are new to dried flowers and floristry; this workshop is designed to be welcoming and inclusive for all skill levels. You'll be guided through the process step by step, learning effective drying and storage techniques along the way.
