Tutor: Elaine Hadfield

Course code: 26SU080

This course is suitable for beginners and those with floristry experience. With a focus on bright summer flowers and woody elements we will create a summer meadow design, living bulb wreath. We will look at colour theory.

All students will need to bring their own greenery and flowers for each session. I will provide wires, tapes, bio foam and other items required for the mechanics. There is no need to spend a lot on flowers and greenery, greenery can be foraged and flowers can often be bought reduced its just the case of having something to practice with.

This course aims to:

Improve floristry skills through creating designs for summer using the elements and principles of design. Learn how to condition summer flowers before use.
