NEW SPRING WORKSHOP - YOU CHOOSE YOUR STYLE! Thursday April 02, 6:00 p.m. or Saturday April 04, 10:00 a.m. A classic beige ceramic footed planter is the container in this unique workshop. It is 8" round and 5" tall - perfect for the centre of the Easter table or to give as a beautiful hostess gift. Your choice (upon registration) will be to make your design a planted one featuring potted plants such as calla lilies, ranunculus, ivy, ferns, spring bulbs and more or to make a fresh flower arrangement (in water) with an abundance of cut flower stems such as lisianthus, stocks, spray roses, eucalyptus and more. Your designers will be Vikki for the folks who decide to plant and a certified florist for those who decide to make a fresh arrangement. Both designs will be happening at the same time in each session - it will be fun watching each group be creative! Lots of colour choice for both styles will be offered as well as bonus accents like pussy willows, decorative moss (planted version) and seasonal decor picks. Photos here show inspiration for both projects; plants and cut flowers may be slightly different. Be assured, your arrangements will be beautiful! -

What will look best: a 16” silver tin planter (city) or an 18” plastic wood-look barrel (country)? After a discussion of plant choices, participants will fill their pot with fresh potting soil and choose their favourite seven to eight fall-themed annuals to plant in the container. Choices will include: mums, ornamental grasses, kale and cabbage, rudbeckia, celosia, asters, fall pansies, calluna (heather) and more. Our staff will help you design the best look for your project! A fun decorative pick will complete the project. Please register for the style of planter you like best: city or country. The workshop price for both is the same. -

Friday March 13, 1:00 p.m. Bring a friend or student who is off on this Friday PD Day to our fun workshop where two projects are made. This workshop is appropriate for anyone 5-99 years old! Only you? No problem, you can do both projects and we can help if you require assistance. In the theme of Spring participants will fill these two tin planters (one is a watering can, the other an oval) with a selection of pre-sprouted bulbs such as tulips, daffodils or hyacinths, small ferns and houseplants along with accents of pussy willows and moss. These planters are for indoor decor now, but could be redesigned for outdoor use once the weather warms up. As always, care, advice and education will be discussed as the group works alongside your host, Vikki and the Design Team. -

$135.00 + HST ($20.00 + HST non-refundable deposit is required to secure your spot. The remainder of the fee will be payable upon arrival to the Workshop) A NEW Collaborative Workshop – "Woven Wonder" Saturday March 23, 1:00pm We’ve created a new project in collaboration with “The Branch Ranch” in Warkworth and we think you will love it! The first hour of this hands-on workshop will be working with Jessica to create a willow woven obelisk that will sit on the rim of a country/modern chic square planter consisting of black metal and reclaimed wood. While learning weaving techniques she will also guide you to make a small willow birdnest. Next, Vikki will take over and guide participants in planting a Spring arrangement full of ranunculus, pre-sprouted hyacinths, daffodils, tulips, fluffy ferns, trailing ivy, blooming calandivia, pussy willows and foliage fillers. The birdnest, nestled with a few faux eggs and birdies, will tuck in for a magical Springtime design! Total height of the planter is 22”; the wooden planting vessel can be separated from the metal base to be used as a tabletop planter or the whole unit can styled as a compliment to your furniture. A unique design! To register for this Workshop, a $20.00 + HST non-refundable deposit is required to secure your spot. The remainder of the fee will be payable upon arrival to the Workshop.
