Treat your mum to a flower arranging session
If you are looking to treat mum then the Seven Dials Mother’s Day Flower Arranging Workshop could be the perfect gift or experience to share.
Taking place in Seven Dials, Covent Garden’s hidden village and hosted in association with Sweet Pea Floral Design, this intimate workshop takes place on Saturday 21st and Sunday 22nd March, bookable as either a morning or afternoon session.
Priced at £50 per person, each two-hour session will be led by Sweet Pea Floral Design’s Founder Marianne Johnson.
Marianne has worked in the industry for over ten years covering high profile events and weddings. She set up Sweet Pea Floral Design over two years ago and now specialises in bespoke design for weddings and events, as well as supplying a number of prestigious venues across London.
The Seven Dials Mother’s Day Flower Workshop kicks off with an introduction from Marianne, who will guide you through essential insider tips such as choosing the perfect colour palette and how to keep your flowers in tip top condition.
She will then demonstrate how to create a beautiful bouquet (Saturday) or stunning Centrepiece (Sunday), using only the highest quality flowers in fresh seasonal spring colours and luxury wrapping. Guests will then have the chance to recreate the floral design with the assistance of Marianne and her staff’s expert coaching.
Each session ends with a chance to admire and compare one another’s creative masterpiece over a nice cuppa and cake.
