Emma was great and easy to communicate with and my daughter and i really enjoyed the afternoon. Came home with an arrangement of flowers I am very happy to display and I look forward to attending others

Thank you
Maria and Patrice

I found Emma to be friendly and helpful with all attendees. Enjoyed myself and learned a few new things that I have been doing incorrectly. Used to always add my foliage last, now I know why I have been battling.

Would look at doing another class sometime towards the end of the year again.

What an enjoyable afternoon spent arranging flowers, the flowers were fantastic and the teacher excellent. Offering advice and allowing you your space to create, encouraging all to produce wonderful arrangements. Well worth having a go.

Emma was an informative, engaging and humorous teacher. The venue was spacious and easy to find. The class wasn't too big so plenty of time for one on one with the teacher. Highly recommended

A fab class. Emma was very organised & well prepared, she gave simple, clear instructions that resulted in a great end product. A delightful way to spend an afternoon. I would definitely recommend this class.

Prue Wilkosz Mar 2023


Emma, our teacher, was very friendly, knowledgeable and approachable. The materials and flowers that we were given were great and Emma broke the skills needed into manageable parts allowing plenty of time to practice. I was thrilled with the final flower arrangement that I made.

I think the workshop could be longer, as it felt really rushed. It would be better to arrange flowers at a slower pace, more relaxing, with tea or relaxing music in background.

Teacher's response

Hi Trang,
Thanks for your review. As I understand the class you attended was 7 months ago I am not entirely clear on the details of your experience, however, I am sorry to hear you were disappointed. We choose our music carefully to be both soothing and energising, and acknowledge that it may not have been to your taste. As our listing reflects, the workshops are offered as a 2-hour experience without refreshments provided, we find this is generally plenty of time and has been without issues so far.
Your feedback is welcome - it's always good to know how our guests feel - and we will certainly take it on board.

I had such a wonderful afternoon creating a bouquet that quite honestly surpassed all expectations. Emma was full of energy and humour with a wealth of knowledge. The flowers and foliage she had for us to work with were abundant and stunning. It was so therapeutic absorbing ourselves in our creation. I would love to do these little workshops more often as it just sparked so much joy.

Sue Bongioletti Sep 2022


I had the most memorable day today , at first I was a little nervous but didn’t last long Emma was a fabulous teacher she put me at ease straight away, we had a small class so suited me as a first time student.
I can’t believe how fast the time went , I will definitely be doing another class.
Thank you Emma

Emma was such a delight to work with! Mum has always been passionate about floral arrangements and has always wanted to learn more about it. Emma was very informative, kind, generous with her time, and made us feel very special.
We will be back for many more workshops!

We had the most wonderful class! Our teacher Emma was so lovely - friendly, helpful and engaging.
As I am someone with very minimal knowledge around flowers (but appreciate receiving them) I learnt so much whilst also having such a fun time! Would highly recommend for anyone of any skill level to complete! Thankyou so much
