Christmas Floral Workshop 9th December 2011
A very successful and enjoyable evening creating a Christmas Door Wreath and Table Centre Design using a pillar candle. Everyone had alot of fun creating their designs and were very proud of their achievements as it was everyone's first attempt at making anything floral. Everyone's designs were individual and unique to them although all the work used a really colourful and wide range of foliages to create good texture and interest. Some used fresh flowers within their table centre designs whilst others used some artificial decorations to mix within the foliages, a touch of sparkle was added at the end with the help of glitter to achieve very festive and beautiful arrangements.
Well done everyone!! It has been a very enjoyable evening

Pennells Garden Centre - Christmas Inspired Demonstration 1st November 2011
A very enjoyable evening in which I demonstrated four designs all with a festive theme. The stage setting had been created by Pennells and looked wonderful, giving the large audience a good view of all the designs as they where being made. A festive mince pie and refreshments where served in the restaurant at the interval and this also gave people a chance to have a chat to me about the designs and materials that I had used aswell as a chance to purchase items throughout the store making use of the 10% discount on offer that evening. This will be the first of many demonstrations and workshops to take place at Pennells continuing into 2012 the next demo's being held throughout their Charity Open Evening on 6th December.
