Floristry courses make great experience days for Mum

Floristry is quite possibly one of the most peaceful pastimes a person can have. Fragrant flowers and foliage can fill a room with a garden-fresh scent, whilst designing your own floral arrangements can get your creative juices flowing whilst your worries and cares drift away. When it comes to experience days for mum, the gift of floristry with either a DIY kit or online class is certainly a relaxing option. 

This mother’s day, if you want to give your flower-loving mum a gift that will last longer than two weeks on the windowsill - why not give her the gift of floristry as a hobby? With an in-person or online flower arranging class and floristry kit your mum will no longer be stuck for things to do on a rainy day at home. After an online class and craft kit, she’ll be able to transform any boring bunch of flowers into stunning and complex modern flower arrangements and will know all the professional design tips. Live in London or heading to the capital for a mini break? Try one of our 2024 floristry classes in London? From seasonal wreath making from spring through to Christmas to flower crown workshops and dried flower arranging classes, or London floristry courses will make her special occasion bloom this year! Live elsewhere in the UK? We have a huge range or UK-based floristry courses everywhere from Edinburgh to Manchester, Birmingham to Bristol!  

Flower arranging might seem like a tricky hobby to get started with. There’s so much to learn about flowers, after all! But, with an online class and floristry kit or in person flower arranging class, your mum will have the help of a professional and all the necessary tools too. To make these unique gifts extra special, you could even join her for some cute mother’s day indoor activities. She’ll love having you by her side as she gets lost in the captivating art of flower arranging. Plus, you’ll be on-hand for extra support and the occasional “you grow girl!”.

DIY terrarium kits and flower-filled experience gifts for mum that'll really make her smile

Does your mum prefer her plant babies to her prim and proper bouquets? Or maybe she’s a green-thumb with no garden space? Let us introduce you to the terrarium, ideal for apartment-dwellers, plant-lovers and plant-killers, as well as those who are obsessed with DIY projects. A terrarium is a self-contained ecosystem with its own unique set of flora and fauna.

This mother’s day, you can give your favourite woman the gift of a new hobby with a DIY terrarium online class and craft kit. With a virtual class and terrarium kit, can she learn how to build herself a low-maintenance (supposedly unkillable), cute mini-jungle. 

You could leave her to it for some de-stressing time alone or you could try it together for some mother’s day bonding whilst learning all about the wonders of nature. With this experience as a gift, your mum will be able to create something beautiful to brighten up her home or workspace.  Not only will she have a little glass-contained floral arrangement to admire, but she’ll also enjoy the experience of crafting it herself!

Plus, the experience will last more than just one day too - with her newfound terrarium skills she’ll be able to build many more! No longer will she be stuck looking for fun things to do at home - with a terrarium kit and online class those days are long behind her! When it comes to gardening gifts for her, you can’t do better than this one! 

If you're looking for experience days for mum in person, explore our range of 2024 workshops - with London floristry classes, Bristol flower crown workshops, Newcastle dried flower arranging classes and Manchester terrarium courses, you'll find a plant-powered workshop wherever you are! 

If your mum is more of a DIY crafter than DIY gardener, check out our crafty mother's day gift ideas here.

Flower crown workshops for floral-fashionista mums

Let’s face it, mums are the best. They raise you, they support you through all of life’s ups and downs, and they are always there when you need them - whether for a hug, a cup of tea, or both! 

So, if you’re looking for gift ideas for her that say “you really are a queen”, we think a flower crown workshop experience gift would be a perfect choice! With this experience as a gift, she’ll be able to get creative whilst slowing down and relaxing - as well as learning how to make a gorgeous floral crown! A DIY flower crown kit and online class are great for those who like getting crafty with their clothes and accessories, plus these fabulous classes don’t require any special skills - anyone can do it! After some DIY flower-arranging fun your mum will have a new accessory for her wardrobe that will make her feel loved and special every time she wears it, as it was a thoughtful gift from you! 

Whether you and your mum enjoy some flower power fun as a pair, or whether you make a special day of it by involving other family and friends - she’ll love doing something a bit different as well as getting artistic with some pretty flowers! Who wouldn’t love that? 

This gift experience is a surefire way to wow your mother and takes the normal mother’s day bouquet to the next level. As with an experience gift, you’re dedicating time, thought and energy into her gift and trust us - she’ll notice and appreciate that!

She can unwind and reconnect with a natural dyeing workshop

Step away from the hustle and bustle and gift your mum an immersive experience in the ancient art of natural dyeing. Imagine her surrounded by vibrant hues extracted from nature's bounty – beetroot reds, turmeric yellows, indigo blues – each colour whispering a story of the earth. These hands-on workshops aren't just about dyeing fabrics; they're a mindful escape, a journey into the transformative power of plants, and a celebration of slow living.

Under the guidance of skilled artisans, your mum will learn the secrets of extracting vibrant pigments from leaves, roots, and flowers. She'll simmer simmering pots, watch colours unfurl like magic, and experiment with traditional techniques like shibori tie-dye or bundle dyeing. This isn't just about creating beautiful scarves or tote bags; it's about rediscovering the connection between nature and creativity, embracing the imperfections of organic hues, and finding peace in the rhythm of the dyeing process.

So, gift your mum an escape from the ordinary and a chance to reconnect with her creative spirit. Let her immerse herself in the vibrant palette of nature, transform simple fabrics into wearable art, and rediscover the joy of creating with her own hands.
