1. Choose the right flowers
Choosing the right flowers is essential when it comes to crafting a stunning floral wreath. When selecting blooms for your masterpiece at a floristry workshop, consider not only their colours but also their durability and how well they’ll dry out if you wish to keep your creation longer-term. Roses, hydrangeas and lavender are popular choices due to their longevity and vibrant hues.
2. Wreath classes in London teach the importance of greenery
A beautiful floral wreath isn't just about the flowers; greenery plays an equally important role too. Foliage like eucalyptus or ivy can add depth and contrast, enhancing the overall aesthetic of your creation whilst providing a lush backdrop that highlights the colours of the blossoms.
3. Learn about different wreath bases
It’s essential to understand the different bases available for creating your floral wreath as this forms its foundation. At our flower wreath workshop, we guide you through using traditional wicker or modern foam bases; each gives unique outcomes when it comes to arranging flowers.
4. Discover the basics of wreath construction
For any beginner attending wreath classes in London, understanding the basics of constructing your piece is crucial for success. Start by preparing your base — usually made from grapevine or wire — before attaching moss or straw which acts as a sponge-like layer to hold water and keep flowers fresh.
5. Master the art of placement
Creating an eye-catching design during a wreath workshop requires mastering the art of placement. Start with larger flowers, evenly spacing them around your wreath before filling in gaps with smaller blooms and then accenting with greenery. This will create a harmonious balance that is visually pleasing to the eye.
6. Experiment with different styles and themes
The joy of attending wreath classes in London lies in the freedom to experiment with different styles and themes; whether you prefer a minimalist aesthetic or love the idea of an overflowing floral extravaganza, there is no right or wrong design as long as it reflects your personal style!
Our expert-led workshops are designed to cater for all levels, from beginners wanting to try their hand at something new, to more advanced creatives looking for fresh inspiration. Our relaxed and friendly environment encourages creativity and self-expression while teaching you invaluable skills.
