NEW SPRING WORKSHOP!

$80.00 + HST

16 participants max per session

Length of Workshop:  1.25-1.5 hours

A classic beige ceramic footed planter is the container in this unique workshop. It is 8" round and 5" tall - perfect for the centre of the Easter table or to give as a beautiful hostess gift.

Your choice (upon registration) will be to make your design a planted one featuring potted plants such as calla lilies, ranunculus, ivy, ferns, spring bulbs and more choices or to make a fresh flower arrangement (in water) with an abundance of cut flower stems such as lisianthus, stocks, spray roses, eucalyptus and more.  Your designers will be Vikki for the folks who decide to plant, and a certified florist for those who decide to make a fresh arrangement.

Both designs will be happening at the same time in each session - it will be fun watching each group be creative! Lots of colour choices for both styles will be offered, as well as bonus accents like pussy willows, decorative moss (planted version) and seasonal decor picks.

A photo of each completed project will be added once the pots are delivered.

Length of Workshop:  1.25-1.5 hours

Pantone has named Cloud Dancer as the Colour of the Year for 2026. Described as a soft, airy, and billowy white, this shade is intended to offer a "whisper of calm" and a serene, neutral foundation to combat a chaotic world, emphasising quiet reflection and intentional simplicity.  Participants in this workshop will experience the calm in the creation of a beautiful white and green arrangement in a milky white 10” glass planter.

A double-stem orchid plant will be the feature, and surrounding it will be a selection of white blooming accent plants and soft green foliage.  A sweet "tweet" white ceramic bird figurine will be nestled amongst the plants, along with decorative moss. Beautiful!  Do note that this workshop has been created in the spirit of the Colour of the Year; there will not be any traditionally “colourful” plants included in this workshop, only tones of white and green. This is an elegant planter for indoor decor, perhaps on a kitchen island or dining table.

As always, care, advice and education will be discussed as the group works alongside your host, Vikki and the Design Team.,

A beautiful 10” clear, high quality glass bowl will be the container to feature a special Spring plant (choices will include a pot of multiple hyacinth bulbs, a blooming hellebore perennial or elegant calla lily) wrapped in a moss covering (kokedama) along with other pre-sprouted bulbs, natural elements (twigs, pussy willows, pinecones, moss) and a Spring nest.

As always, care, advice, and education will be discussed as the group works alongside your host, Vikki, and the Design Team.

A new design!  In this workshop, participants will make two moss kokedama balls with pre-sprouted mini daffodils, jute string, curly willow, and other decorative and dried flower accompaniments.  Each moss ball will sit on a simple clay saucer.  They can be displayed together, or separately in your home.

If you get excited and wish to make more, time allows for additional kokedama balls to be made in the workshop for $22.00 each, payable at the end of the session.

While one of these sessions will be held during March school break, it is not recommended for young children.  Appropriate ages for this workshop are 10-99 years.

We will offer an assortment of three wood/metal designs as the planter of this value-priced workshop.  Petite, these planters are perfect to sit on indoor side tables or kitchen islands, transferring to outdoor use on a small patio table, if you wish, for warmer days.

Spring plant choices to fill each pot will include pre-sprouted bulbs, such as tulips, mini daffodils, and hyacinths, small houseplants, ferns, ivy, and accents such as pussy willows and moss.

With registration, one wood and metal planter is included in the price of this workshop. You will choose your planter shape upon arrival; there will be lots of each choice. If you wish to create additional planters, you may pay $30.00 per (all materials included) during the workshop session.

Bring a friend or student who is off on this Friday, PD Day, to our fun workshop where two projects are made.  This workshop is appropriate for anyone 5-99 years old!  Only you?  No problem, you can do both projects, and we can help if you require assistance.

In the theme of Spring, participants will fill these two tin planters (one is a watering can, the other an oval) with a selection of pre-sprouted bulbs such as tulips, daffodils, or hyacinths, small ferns, and houseplants, along with accents of pussy willows and moss.  These planters are for indoor decor now, but could be redesigned for outdoor use once the weather warms up.

As always, care, advice, and education will be discussed as the group works alongside your host, Vikki, and the Design Team.
