Floristry is more than just arranging flowers—it’s about creativity, sustainability, and discovering beauty in the everyday. This course takes a new approach to floristry designed for anyone seeking a fresh perspective on floral design, whether you're a beginner, an enthusiastic hobbyist, or aspiring to build a career that blends artistry with eco-conscious practices.
This non-accredited course offers a fresh, modern approach to floristry, blending traditional techniques with contemporary design trends. Through a series of engaging projects, you’ll explore floral design from beginner-friendly arrangements to more advanced creations, all while working with flowers, foliage, and essential floristry tools. Unlike conventional floristry courses, this experience is rooted in sustainability, resourcefulness, and playful experimentation. You’ll develop an eye for hidden beauty, explore budget-friendly alternatives to cut flowers, and learn techniques that reduce waste while enhancing creativity.

Each session is interactive and collaborative, providing opportunities for discussion, experimentation, and feedback. By the end of the course, you’ll have developed a portfolio of stunning arrangements and gained the confidence to create floral art for any occasion.
