Day Courses

This inspirational day has been designed for individuals or groups who use flowers and foliage to enhance the church interior. Develop all the skills and techniques you need to create amazing arrangements, pedestals, alter flowers, garlands and pew ends.

This is the ultimate package for visitors to London. Arrive early and pay a special visit to the Covent Garden wholesale Flower Market with its bustle of traders surrounded by a sea of blooming colour and fragrance. Select your own flowers to take back to the Academy and enjoy a creative session on how to use them to design delightful arrangements.

Through the ages artist and craftsmen have been inspired by nature, in particular flowers and foliage. The day will explore how flowers can adapt to the needs of the designer – through a series of exciting exercises you will explore how colour, form and textures inherent in nature can be utilised to fit into the modern interior. You will create a dynamic contemporary arrangement in your own style.

Flowers and Jewellery have a long standing relationship. More often than not the shapes and textures of flowers take centre stage in jewellery design, with people routinely opting to wear the flower form on their heads, around their necks or on their wrists.

Turn some heads by adorning your own. The hat creation day course is a must for those who love fashion and fun, a really enjoyable day for anyone with a creative urge.

Flowers and vases go together like a hand fits in a glove. Finding the right container for a bunch of flowers or a large bouquet can be a predicament, one should complement the other. Both flowers and vases come in many different shapes and sizes, so getting the right balance can be complex.
