Boozie Bouquets

In this class students will learn the basics of hydrating and preparing floral, the  hand-tied spiral technique for creating bouquets, and how to wrap the bouquet for a gift presentation. 

Guests are welcomed with a cocktail of their choosing followed by a 45 minute demonstration on the fundamentals of bouquet making. Once the demonstration is completed guests will mingle and take turns creating and practicing their bouquets at the “flower bar” while they also have an opportunity to replenish their glasses at the cocktail bar.

At the conclusion of the event students will have learned skills to take average bouquets from local grocery stores and elevate them into beautiful gifts to give to themselves and others.

In addition to their bouquet, students will take home an instructional book with bouquet recipes, a flower care guide and floral spray to keep their bouquet fresh.

January 26, 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM Boozie Bouquets will be held at our Studio in Hubbard Woods ($95 per person; includes light nibbles and cocktails. Guests will leave with a spiral tied bouquet, recipe cards and a special gift)
