Learn how to make flowers for hats and corsages

Many of my clients tell me they really enjoy being creative so I decided I would run some one day workshops where you can come and learn how to make the lovely flowers for corsages and hats that complete many of my outfits. You might have a special day out at the races or a wedding coming up and want to add a special personal touch to what you are wearing.

If you are looking for an activity to do with a group of friends for a special birthday or a fun session for your daughter’s hen do, I am happy to run an event especially for you and your group. The one day workshops will be held in my salon in the heart of Knightsbridge so you can head out for cocktails or late night shopping afterwards.

I will lead you through each stage and my talented assistant Sam will be on hand to help and guide you too. The workshops will start with tea and coffee and a chance to look at my collections for inspiration. Then I will demonstrate how to make camellia, lotus flowers, roses and lilies in various materials. I will also share beading techniques used to create the centres of flowers.

You will be taught to create flowers and make a fascinator for the races or a corsage for a wedding outfit. No experience necessary as you will be taught the processes from start to finish. Sam and I will be on hand to assist you. You will design and take away your own finished piece. All materials and equipment included in the price.

The workshop is for 5 people. If you would like to match your creation to an outfit you are welcome to bring it along. Lunch with a glass of Prosecco and afternoon tea with cake are also included. The day will end at 4.30pm and you will take home your beautiful creation.
