Attend four distinctive Flower Power sessions this spring. Register for any or all sessions. Unwind after your day’s labor by crafting a simple but elegant floral design to share with a friend.  Better yet, invite them to join you to share in the fun!   These classes have been specially created for those who want to gain the confidence to create simple but beautiful designs. No prior skill is required, but those with some experience will learn new techniques to improve their design proficiency.  Extra floral tools and specialty materials may be purchased from instructor if desired.

Session 2:  New Ways with Market Bouquets  We all pick up fresh flowers at the grocery store, but few of us know what to do with them when we get home. Learn
