Suitable for beginners to floristry, this course is designed to give you the opportunity to explore your creative side using practical floristry skills and techniques, covering all aspects of floristry i.e. flower arrangements, wedding and funeral work using foam and wiring techniques. (N.B this is not a flower arranging course).

Each week covers a different type of floral design, dependent on flower availability and seasonal themes. For example; buttonholes, fresh flower arrangement, arrangement with fruit and vegetables, candle arrangement, wedding bouquet.
