Place it on your dining table in your favourite case or gift it to someone special—there’s no better joy than sharing handmade beauty with your loved ones.
Make dried flower arrangements
If you're someone who loves the rustic charm of dried flowers or wants to preserve the beauty of fresh blooms, our dried flower arrangement workshop is just for you. Here, we introduce you to the magical world where flowers stay graceful forever! In this floral workshop, our expert florists will guide you through the different types of flowers to include in your arrangement and how each flower is important for overall harmony. Once those basics are covered, it’s time for some fun! You’ll have plenty of time to go off on your own to arrange these dried beauties into stunning displays, perfect for any home decor or gift giving occasion like Christmas 2024 or as Mother's Day presents. Put them in vases, picture garlands draped over your fireplace mantel or dried flower wreaths adorning your front door—all made by yours truly!
The best part? Dried flower arrangements last longer than fresh ones so every time you look at them, they’ll remind you of that wonderful day spent creating something gorgeous at floral workshops in Brisbane.
Craft a DIY Christmas wreath
At our DIY Christmas wreath workshop in Brisbane, we believe in celebrating every day like it's December 25th! Allow us to inspire and equip you with the skills needed to create a festive wreath that adds cheer not just during the holiday season but all year round. This flower arranging class will guide you through selecting the best materials, from traditional evergreens like pine or holly to more unconventional ones like eucalyptus or olive branches. You'll learn how to construct a sturdy base, attach the greenery and finally, add those special touches (think bows, baubles and fairy lights) that make your wreath uniquely yours. What's more, these Christmas wreaths aren't just for your front door. They can also be used as festive centrepieces for your dining table or even hung over mirrors or picture frames for an added touch of holiday magic. By the end of the workshop, you will have not only made a beautiful wreath but also learned a skill that you can use year after year.
Need to find an exciting team building activity for the whole team? Head to a floristry course near you and make your own Christmas wreath. This activity allows everyone to have fun regardless of their artistic skill or background. With expert guidance and ample time for creativity, your team can unwind and feel inspired by everyone’s different wreaths. It’s amazing how people can receive the same materials but everyone comes away with a unique wreath!
Making a Christmas wreath can also be a therapeutic activity. The holiday season can be a stressful time in the workplace, with end-of-year deadlines looming. By providing a fun, relaxing activity like floral wreath making, you can help your employees de-stress and reconnect with their colleagues in an informal, fun setting. Now isn’t that the experience gift that keeps on giving?

Discover culture with an Ikebana flower arrangement
Ready for an oriental twist? Ikebana is an art form deeply rooted in Japanese culture where it’s all about respecting nature's shapes, lines and forms while finding balance between all elements included. In an Ikebana floral workshop, you learn how to arrange each stem and place it thoughtfully within your design. The result is often a stunningly simplistic yet profound reflection of life and nature itself.
