Seasonal Floral Design: August Centerpiece (8/6)

$80.00

Thursday, August 6, 6pm - 8pm at Yellowbird Coffee Bar NE (639 22nd Ave NE, MPLS)

Design your own floral centerpiece in this beginner-friendly class, featuring locally-grown August flowers! Join Elle, farmer-florist at Mellifera, to learn the technical and artistic basics to floral design, and in the process create your own unique centerpiece with local blooms from the farm. 

Hosted at Yellowbird Coffee Bar in NE Mpls. All materials and tools are provided, and you can peruse the Yellowbird Evening Market before or after class!

Learn to craft an expressive, organic floral design that celebrates seasonality. We’ll use only MN/WI-grown flowers, plus foraged goodies reflecting our prairie, river valley, and Northwoods ecosystems. Explore summer flower favorites like zinnias, sunflowers, and snapdragons, and meet new-to-you unique varieties! 

Elle will demonstrate color theory, how to see flowers’ structural and textural roles in design, and floristry tips and tricks to maximize vase life and health of your flowers. No previous floral experience necessary — in fact, you may find a new interest sparked! Learn to transform your farmers market, backyard garden, and grocery store bouquets into unique, organic arrangements. Perfect for gardeners showcasing backyard blooms, creatives looking for new mediums of expression, or anyone craving more play and self-expression in their life.
