FlowerJoy@Ilkley Workshops
My aim for FlowerJoy@ Ilkley workshops is to help people look at their gardens in a whole new way, to utilise what they may have in their garden, add some focal flowers and learn a few basic floristry skills so they can confidently create floral works of art in the future. Information is provided about purchasing flowers, flower preparation, how to make arrangements last longer, bouquet or arrangement composition/design and a few other pearls of floral wisdom.
Most of all the workshops are an opportunity to relax, soak up nature in our peaceful setting and create new flower memories. Bring a friend or family member to share the day with you.
Private Workshops
Workshops can be created to suit your needs (re; themes, colours and flower selection). Organise a workshop for a special birthday celebration, a work team building activity, Hen’s party or just an opportunity to gather your friends together for a day a self-care and relaxation. Workshops can be arranged for the bridal party to prepare table or venue flower arrangements the day before a wedding, once again creating special flower memories. Workshops can be offered in your preferred location or mine.
Workshops include: all flowers and foliage, container, floral demonstration, assembly assistance, morning/afternoon tea and skills to apply to future floral works.
Price: Starting from $100 (depending on flower choices and workshop type).

Testimonials

It was such a lovely afternoon. I love the flower arrangement I took home and I can’t believe that I could actually create something so pretty. I went home feeling happy and relaxed. I am looking forward to joining you again, Kirsty. FlowerJoy is the perfect name!

Kirsty’s workshops are just lovely. Have been twice with friends and my daughter - all thoroughly enjoyed an afternoon of peace, beauty and creativity. Would absolutely recommend for self or shared activity. Have been putting skills to use ever since - no nearby luscious greenery is safe when I buy my supermarket flowers. My vase is full. Thank you Kirsty.
