Description
Floral Workshop
If the recent downtime has ignited a desire to work with flowers, or you’ve been having a hard time finding relevant resources to up your floristry game, we want to welcome you to our floral cave!
There is a big gap between what students learn in traditional floral education and what is actually required in real life to create current, practical and contemporary designs. Or you may have attended other one-off workshops and asking yourself “where do I go from here?”.
My wish is create an environment where I can bridge this gap and impart some of my best tips and tricks based on my personal experience in this industry.
This is for you if you are a flower lover or aspiring florist who wants to gain confidence in floral artistry and develop your own style simply by implementing our approach to flowers without wasting time figuring it out on your own.
Kicking things off, we are launching 2 foundational courses in August.
Date: 8 August 2020, Saturday
Time: 1-6pm
Venue: 3015 Ubi Road 1, Singapore 408704
Instructor: Kayly (Founder of BFOR)
1. Principles of Art & Design
There are several principles to art and design, and you’ll learn how to apply this into floristry. (Yes, floristry is an art form!) we believe in getting foundations right as it applies to every type of floral arrangement.
2. Garden Style Vase Centerpiece
Put the principles of design in action and create an organic garden style centerpiece in a vase without having to use any aid/mechanics. This will help you to focus on the elements on design and create good foundations.
3. Organic Hand-tied Bouquet Hack
It’s a challenge to create an organic style hand-tied bouquet and often results in tired and cramped hands. We teach you the trick we use to conquer that and saves time!
4. Bouquet French Spiral Technique
Let’s talk techniques now! The spiralling method is a traditional bouquet building technique for all types of bouquets. Most people have the misconception that this technique is simple. In fact it is one of the hardest to master, but definitely a good skill to have.
5. Wrapping It Up
Learn how to tie off and wrap your bouquet like a professional florist!

Each workshop only has 4 seats available because we pride ourselves in crafting a special learning experience and to give each participant the attention they deserve. We will also comply fully with COVID-19 safety distancing measures.
Our Foundation courses will be a pre-requisite for our future Intermediate & Advanced courses in the coming months. I highly encourage students who intend to progress in the florist industry to enrol in advance as the frequency of the workshops are limited.
