Summer Special - Dahlia Saturdays
Half Day Workshop to Visit, Cut & Arrange with Dahlias
This summer, we are back and ready to fall in love with dahlias -
We will start with a visit to one of the dahlia farms nearby my studio.
After gathering at the studio at 09:30 or at a dahlia farm at 10:00 AM, cutting a bucket full of dahlias, we will bring it back to the studio, condition it and leave it to hydrate while we get some tea and I explain how to arrange. I will prepare the vessel and machanics big and sturdy enough to hold all the dahlia flowers you have picked. You don’t need to bring anything. Just a good preparation to bring back your arrangement in the vessel when you are done.
The session will be finished between 13:00 - 13:30
Picking dahlias is one of the most magical experiences. Arranging with dahlias - that’s also another level of pure pleasure. We are very lucky to be surrounded by big dahlia fields that are also open for flower picking. You will enjoy the sea of dahlias in the wide open fields and picking the ones that really speak to you in terms of colors, shapes and sizes.
Summer Sale Price : 109 EUR → 99 EUR
What’s included : All flowers, snack, tea, coffee, mechanics, flower scissors, transporatation to and from the dahlia farm
For a group of 3 or more people, you can pick the date and time. Please email me to inquire.

Sharing some thoughts - first, on the power of a great hobby
I believe that in this increasingly digitized world, a tactile and focused hobby activity is almost life-saving.
This simple human action is what helps us quiet our head and give us the sense of accomplishment.
A few hours of this self-absorbed and peaceful time every week will do wonders for your happiness and well-being.
Second, on the magic of flowers
Just the beauty of it and the fact that it comes straight from nature.
No other hobby gives you such intense pleasure through all of your five senses as flowers.
And this is one skill that will make all of your friends jealous. So what are you waiting for?
