About the Workshop

As we emerge from the Cape Town winter, join us for a fun and relaxed evening celebrating the arrival of Spring through the art of floral arranging.

Beginning with a live demonstration full of practical tips and techniques, Chloe will guide you step by step as you create your own beautiful vase arrangement using fresh seasonal flowers and foliage.

Working with soft pastel blooms such as roses, snapdragons, ranunculus (subject to seasonal availability) and interesting textural greenery, you'll discover just how enjoyable and achievable floral arranging can be.

Whether you're decorating your home, creating thoughtful gifts or simply looking for a creative evening out, you'll leave with both a stunning arrangement and the confidence to recreate it again.

During the workshop we'll cover:

• Preparing and conditioning fresh flowers
• Understanding different flower varieties
• The basics of floral design and composition
• Creating balance, movement and texture
• Professional techniques for securing flowers without floral foam
• Caring for your arrangement so it lasts longer

No previous experience is needed—just come ready to create, learn and enjoy working with beautiful flowers.
