A great class!

What a fun time on Saturday! We worked with a great rose (Geraldine) and learned the step-by-step of conditioning and arranging 25 roses. This arrangement is perfect for a cocktail table, side table, OR the dining table (mais bien sur!) and has many different applications. Truly a versatile technique! Thanks to the ladies who participated, you were wonderful to teach! Here are the highlights:


       As Julie Andrews sang, "Let's start at the very beginning..." 
       Rose 101: It's the best place to start!



                                           Stripped and ready for action!



                             Exhale... (And yet ANOTHER use for the AJ's bag!)


                                                                           
                                                     Inhale...


                     Cardinal directions: always helpful for finding your way home!


                                           Bull's eye!


                                           The home stretch...

                          
                                           Success!



                                          Wrapping things up, literally!

  
                                                     Et voila!

If you (or someone you know who may be interested!) are in the Phoenix area on December 4, there is another class being offered, just in time for holiday entertaining or gifting.

During this two-hour class, as shown above, you will learn how to clean, trim, and condition 25 premium-grade roses to maximize their vase life. Then I will teach you how to arrange these roses in a foolproof method that works every time! You'll take away with you a graphic rose arrangement - that YOU created - in a versatile glass cylinder, boxed and wrapped for easy travel or gift giving. You will also receive a florist knife, and the knowledge to re-create this arrangement whenever you wish - complete with "how-to" instructions! Arrangements of this quality sell for over $120 at local florists.

And the investment you'll make to attend my class? $125.

Working with your hands to create something beautiful is perfect for:

  • A mental health day
  • A mother-daughter day
  • A day out with the gals - or guys!
I'm also happy to hold custom classes on other days for specific occasions, such as:
  • A birthday party 
  • A bachelorette party
  • A corporate team building event
I love what I do and I'd love to share it with you. To register or for questions: RobertBeukema@Mac.com
