faux flowers - Ferris Heart Sloane

Our 2023 workshops and classes

With the new year just getting started, we’ve just released our new course catalogue. The plant-based workshops we have on offer are beginner-friendly and a great way for anyone looking to explore their creative side. Whether you’re looking for a way to get together with your work colleagues, or you’re planning a stag/hen do and need some light fun to start the proceedings, there’s something for everyone to enjoy!

All of our face-to-face workshops have a virtual equivalent, so you can get together and enjoy a relaxing session with friends and colleagues no matter how remote, and no matter what the occasion. Everything will be sent to you or your guests, including all the soil and plants you’ll need to come away with your very own botanical creation.

Here are just a few of the highlights from the 2023 Ferris Heart Sloane course catalogue.

Succulent wreath workshop

Succulents are all the rage right now, and in our succulent wreath workshop, you’ll take home your very own wreath full of a variety of these exotic delights.

Over the course of this 45 minutes to 1 hour and 30-minute workshop, we’ll take you through the process of building a solid wreath base on which your plants will continue to thrive throughout the seasons. We’ll then provide a selection of succulents for you to arrange on your wreath in whichever way you like! And what’s more is that you’ll come away with some handy care tips that will keep your wreath looking fresh for years to come.

We offer this class in-person and online, so why not get in touch and book.

Make your own kokedama

Delight your guests with Japan’s answer to a hanging basket. Our Japanese moss ball, or ‘kokedama’, workshop offers a novel way for you to bring a touch of nature to your home. Get your hands dirty and shape your moss and soil into a lush mini ecosystem that can sustain a variety of plants without the need for a traditional planter.

We’ll provide a selection of plants on the day so that you can take home something that suits each and every one of your guests. And by teaching you how to care for your kokedama, it will stay well-fed, well-watered and happy for months, or even years, to come!

Make your own herb garden

A fantastic activity for kids and adults alike, our herb garden workshop is a great way to bring a little sustainability to your home or workplace. We’ll guide you and your guests through the process of creating your very own herb garden that will continue to offer a healthy supply of herbs with a variety of culinary and health benefits for years to come.

We provide everything you need to get going – planters, soil, seasonal herbs and spices. And most importantly of all, we’ll be your guide as you embark on your new gardening role – what do you need to feed your herbs? When should everything be watered? How can you make sure your garden lasts? All of this and more will be answered by our botanical experts.

So what are you waiting for? Get in touch today to book us in for a face-to-face or virtual workshop.

Get Crafty – DIY Flower Crown Kits

Hands up who loves a flower crown? We know we do, not only are they perfect for festivals, corporate summer parties and other special occasions – think press days, weddings and other occasions; they’re also pretty simple to make too – even if you‘re not a natural dab hand at crafts. If you’ve attended one of our famous flower crown workshops in the past, you’ll know how fun the whole experience is, and what a great opportunity it is to put your creative hat on (so to speak) for a couple of hours. Check out more about our flower crown workshops here.

However, if you’re more of a closet arts and crafter, and would like to try your hand at making flower crowns within the comfort of your own home – look to our flower crown kits. Each DIY set comes in a recycled box you can reuse to store your flower crowns and includes an easy to follow instruction guide to help you on your way, which we’re pretty sure you won’t need after you’ve made your first one. You can also pre-select the colours and flowers you would prefer, and we can put together a bespoke kit for you – sounds good, eh?

As well as making individual flower crowns for you and the family, you can also use these kits if you’re doing team bonding exercises at work, hen parties, baby and bridal showers – they also make the perfect addition to a gift bag if you’re hosting a special event. Flower crown making outside is so much fun in the summer, too.

So, not only can you don your flower crown on your head, you can style it various other ways too – here’s a few flower crown styling tips for your reference:

– Make a flower crown you can use to accessories a handbag. Flowers adorning a straw bag looks so cute for holidays and summer outings

– Use your flower crown as a hanging home accessory – a flower crown looks great hanging at the back of a door or hung on the wall

– Use it as a floral necklace, you can’t beat a statement necklace

– Attach your flower crown to your bridal veil to add an ethereal touch
