Get ready for two hours of creativity, color, and hands-on floral magic! In this floral design class, you’ll build a fresh vase arrangement from scratch using seasonal blooms we personally curate just for you! Expect a beautiful mix of flowers, foliage, and textures for your arrangement, which will be designed to last a week or longer.
Class will begin with an introduction to the flowers you’ll be using. You’ll learn the names, why they were chosen, and how they come together to create a cohesive, colorful arrangement. Along the way, we’ll share insider tips on stretching your floral budget, shopping smarter, and navigating the iconic SF Flower Market!
Next, we’ll walk you through stem processing, which is the technique of cleaning and prepping your blooms, so they live longer, followed by a full demonstration of building a balanced, structured vase arrangement. For the last part of class, you’ll receive your own materials and get busy designing your own arrangement with guidance and support throughout the process! Each student will leave with one seasonal floral arrangement and the know-how to source and create more arrangements from home!
Supplies Needed: None. All supplies are included. Shears and a vase are also provided, so there is no need to bring your own.
