WHAT STUDENTS ARE SAYING:
"Inspiring Design and thoughtful instruction! Beautifully produced and so inspiring! Kelly's thoughtful guidance around mechanics, flower choice, and artistic (while also intentional) placement of stems is so helpful. Love the unique perspective gained from a flower grower designing a field to vase arrangement!"
AMY MCGEE / BOTANICAL BROUHAHA
"Perfect Title- This is exactly what you'll be experiencing throughout the course. There is a wonderful PDF document to support Kelly's inspiring video of arranging garden flowers. I love the flowers she uses and reminds us that the finished product, if looks anything like that of your garden will make an eye-pleasing and stunning arrangement. The important take away for me was when and if you get stuck, go back to reviewing and following a series of steps allowing the arrangement to pull itself together with ease."
GEORGENE / STUDENT
"Love the layering of mechanics, color, texture, design and general beauty. Thank you!"
