Seasonal Floral Design 101A: Bold and Bodacious Autumn Arrangements

  • Wilding Hope Farm and Studio 229 Cuba Mills Road Mifflintown, PA, 17059 United States (map)

Love large luscious arrangements with big, bold blooms like sunflowers, dahlias and brain celosia, but struggle to know how to deal with their thick stems and heavy blooms? Come learn from Phoebe how to harvest, condition, and design with summer’s biggest blooms using sustainable design techniques. We’ll experiment with creating both forward facing statement arrangements like those used for memorial arrangements, churches, or auditoriums, and also more organic asymmetrical arrangements that can be viewed from all directions for buffet tables, wine barrels, foyer tables. Some of the design concepts that we will focus on include balance, weight, and structure in addition to color theory and the use of repetition to create movement. Participants will leave with a large floral arrangement and the skills and confidence to create large statement florals going forwards. All supplies provided including a large vase and light refreshments will be provided. Participants may want to bring a pair of gloves to protect their hands.
