2020 new beginnings
Hello and welcome to my first blog where i thought i'd introduce myself and explain why i set up The Floral Adventure.
​
In 2019 I visited Amsterdam and had such an amazing time at Keukenhof gardens. (see photo), I came back wanting to share my passion for flowers and started to think of a way to do that. So when 2020 was fast approaching I decided this was the time for new beginnings and a change.
I took the plunge and set up The Floral Adventure to teach others floristry and plant workshops. As a florist it's something i've been contemplating for a while now. I believe that learning with others and meeting new people (dont forget the tea and biscuits!) is a fun relaxing way to get creative for an afternoon or evening.
​
I realised whilst i was in Amsterdam that the time that i was happiest in my life was using plants and floristry as a therapeutic balance in my life. That feeling of triumph when your seeds you sowed pop up or a customer says they received the most beautiful flowers ever.
​
So the name The Floral Adventure reflects that we are forever learning and who knows where are journeys will take us.
