Winter Gathered
A seasonal workshop exploring texture, shape and the art of arranging for home.
As the seasons shift, join Elizabeth Ricci for an immersive afternoon celebrating the richness of winter through flowers and botanical materials.
In this hands-on workshop, we'll explore how to work beyond blooms alone - layering textural elements, sculptural foliage and seasonal flowers to create arrangements that feel considered, expressive and full of depth.
Designed for both beginners and flowers lovers alike, you'll learn practical techniques for combining colour, form and texture, along with styling principals, helping you create arrangements that feel beautiful not just in the moment, but within your everyday life and home.
Once our arranging is complete, we'll come together for afternoon tea - a chance to slow down, connect and enjoy the experience of gathering. At Melbourne Flower Merchant, flowers have always been about more than creating something beautiful; the're an invitation to pause, notice and make space for simple moments of enjoyment.
You'll leave with your own generous winter arrangement presented in a vase to keep, along with ideas and inspiration for bringing seasonal flowers into your home.
You'll leave with:
- A completed winter vase arrangement to take home
- Your vessel to keep
- Practical tips for styling flowers at home
- Confidence working with texture, movement and seasonal materials
- Afternoon tea shared together in the studio
More than a workshop, this is an afternoon to slow down. Create a textural winter arrangement, share afternoon tea and experience flowers as part of gathering, creativity and everyday rituals at home. Leave with your arrangement, your vase and inspiration to continue creating beyond the studio.
Spaces are limited to ensure an intimate and personal experience.
