Beyond Beginning Design Workshop – Table Designs (Wait List Only)
One of the Sections in a Flower Show that the public likes the best is Table Designs. Everyone can relate to a table that is perfectly coordinated, pleasing to look at and has a lovely floral design on it. In this workshop, you will learn the tips and techniques that make blue ribbon-winning exhibits. During the hands-on section of the workshop, you will learn to make a beautiful centerpiece that might help you win the blue at the next CT State Flower Show! (Picture shown is not the design that you will be making in the workshop. You do not have to bring dishes with you.)
Included is a lecture, followed by a hands-on workshop, and critique. Critiques are done in small groups by the instructor and other accredited judges to aid participants in improving their design skills. The enrollment fee ($40.00) covers all materials.
