If there were ever a time to have feelings growing in the greens, falling with the yellows, and refreshing like the few reds lingering; last Sunday was our day! It was such a humbling experience to work alongside and learn with Lindsey as she delicately placed each stem into perfection, a wild and natural kind of perfection.
The newfound appreciation for detailed intricacies in saying "I love you", or "Thank you!" to someone else or yourself was something that really soothed our souls. With an intimate workshop hosted at Cafe Mosaics, there was a sense of busyness around us, but also relaxation in angle cutting, greenery arranging, burlap wrapping, and bouquet tying kinda way.
Our bouquets consisted of some really in season floral that really brought out all the colors and emotions of fall. Lindsey had meticulously picked out some of our favorites to really make sure everything popped! Here are a few amazing captures by the up and coming (and very talented) Jelena Wong in how our afternoon looked!

Not decided yet, and want to hear from some of our participants?
Here's what a few of our attendees had to say about their experience at the workshop:
"I had so much fun at the floral workshop! I definitely think I got my money's worth considering the tote bag, the $10 voucher at Café Mosaic, and the flowers too!!I can't really think of anything else to improve on. Just have more!! I wouldn't mind doing more workshops on specific bouquets (bridal, bridesmaids, or vase arrangements)."

"I really enjoyed the workshop. It was nice to get practical tips and insider tricks that you normally don't get in a class. I loved the take home bags! Those extra touches were really nice and you don't normally get that in a workshop. Overall, the class was really great, and I would recommend it to anyone interested in flower arranging. Please keep me informed of any class you run in the future. I would love to do a centerpiece arrangement course for the holidays and/or terrarium class, and/or corsage making.Thank you again for a great afternoon."
