Almost every day I get asked how many stems you need to create a certain design AND..how much to charge …and it’s such a difficult question to answer…Stem length and head diameter vary so much from season to season that it’s almost impossible to be exact. However we will do our best…..
This helpful course will cover:
We will deconstruct several key designs e.g. pedestal, flower arch, hand tied wedding bouquet, flower globe, various table centres and more in order to create individual flower recipes.
These can then help you work out exactly how much (and what) to order which in turn will help you calculate a suitable price point.

This is a short day course. There is copious coffee and cake.
Please bring your own lunch.
