Come celebrate the first day of Spring with Katie and your new flower friends in the cozy, light filled Ponderosa Classroom for a day of meditation, conversation and flower making while we explore the fairy-tale magic of earliest Springtime in the Pacific Northwest.
During this full day course, we will explore using all the yummiest early spring flowers (Hellebore, Narcissus, and blossoms oh my!) to create the most drop dead gorgeous, Springtime bridal bouquets!
We'll meet in the morning and begin with a flower meditation, taking time to reflect on this wonderful new season, and prepare our minds and hearts to enter Spring with renewed focus and joy. Katie will demonstrate and teach how to make a glorious Springtime bridal bouquet, and then you'll create your own, with Katie available to assist! When you are finished with your bouquet, Katie will teach you how to document and photograph your work, and at the end of the day we will enjoy a wonderful meal together at one of our favorite local restaurants.
