There’ll be sessions on Flower & Colour choices, Principles and Elements of Design & we’ll share the costing formula for every design. You’ll purchase your own flowers & sundries for each session, guided by our list of correct choices.

    We’ll also cover setting up your studio, marketing your business and much much more.

    Each student will purchase all of their own florals at the flower market before each class. A recommended budget of between $50 - $100 per week, along with sundries and equipment at a cost of approx $250 for the entire course.

  • Floral Styling with BYO Flowers + Vases

    Bring along your favourite vase(s) &/or container(s), an assortment of your favourite flowers and foliages and we’ll show you the tips and tricks to style them like a boss – every.single.time!

    We suggest this class is the perfect partner class to do immediately after our Sydney Flower Market Tour & Breakfast class.

    We run the tour & breakfast prior to this class & think it’s a perfect precursor as it gives you the perfect opportunity to use and style your own freshly selected/bought fresh flowers and foliages.

  • Sydney Flower Market Tour & Breakfast

    Join us at 6am on the 3rd Saturday of every month for a guided tour of the Sydney Flower Markets and be inspired by the colour and chaos! We’ll guide you through the market, introduce you to the growers, show you what varieties and colours of flowers work together as well as what to look for (and avoid!) when purchasing fresh flowers.

    You will then end the tour with a well deserved coffee and breakfast, at one of the fabulous cafes on-site at the markets, giving you the opportunity to share your discoveries and new found knowledge with all your new flower friends.

    For your enjoyment places are limited so we suggest you enrol as quick as you can because this class fills up & quickly books out every month!
