Spring 2025 In-person Floral Design Workshop

April 6th & 7th | Amalgre Venue | Colorado Springs, Colorado


Spring 2025 In-Person Floral Design Workshop

Two days of in-person, hands-on floral design education

April 6th & 7th in beautiful Colorado!

Starting a floral business is an exhilarating venture filled with the promise of creativity & beauty, freedom & flexibility, BUT it’s also overwhelming.

Where do you begin?

What skills do you need?

That’s where I come in! The Springs 2025 floral design workshop offers you the skills and foundation to confidently pursue your floral business dreams. This can look different for everyone, and I’m here to walk with you on this journey!

In this 2-day, hands-on floral intensive workshop, you will get your hands dirty with some beautiful local blooms and unique seasonal flowers from the wholesaler. Whether designing arrangements for weddings, events, or everyday occasions, a deep understanding of floral design principles and elements is essential.

Having the opportunity to work directly with the product will provide invaluable insights into the artistry and technical aspects of creating stunning bouquets and centerpieces. Since I only take 8 students in each workshop, I’m able to work 1-1 with you to make adjustments to your designs in real-time, which will save you many headaches down the road.

Ready to get practical experience in floral design? Our workshop is designed for new or aspiring florists who want to learn the essentials—from corsages and boutonnieres to bridal bouquets, centerpieces, and even floral installations.

ABOUT

Hi, I’m Amber…

I’m a texture-loving, gardening novice, mom of two with over 25 years of floral industry experience (please don’t do the math!). 

Throughout my career, I have done everything from washing buckets, delivering arrangements, working for a large event company, owning a retail shop, and leading a boutique floral studio that specializes in weddings and events. 

You see, floral artistry is very much a part of me (and always will be). However, it took me struggling to balance owning my retail shop with being a new mom to realize that freedom was not just a luxury but a necessity. Ever since I had my daughter 19 years ago, I have been on a mission to carve out a space in the industry that not only felt true to me and my creative expression, but allowed me to spend quality time with my husband and kids when it mattered most. All of which led me to my greatest purpose of teaching other aspiring women how to run a floral design business that operated just the same - on their terms. 

I believe in creating the floral business that is right for you and the things you hold closest to your heart. This in-person workshop allows you to grow your floral design skills and build a community to support you as you build a business.  

My work has been featured in Flutter Magazine, The Knot, Rocky Mountain Bride, and more. I have helped florists of all backgrounds and experience levels transform their design skills and build industry-defining businesses. & I want to do the same for you! 

I would love to have you for this special 2 or 3-day immersive workshop. Join the waitlist for more information coming soon.
