To mark 10 blooming brilliant years of our sister company florist in Sandy, The Flower Mill, we’re rolling out something a little special: a Pick & Mix Flower Bar, designed as the ultimate Advanced Flower Arranging Workshop. It’s unstructured, unhurried, and unapologetically creative — a space where confident flower arrangers can do what they do best: play with flowers.
This isn’t your typical flower class. There’s no formal demonstration, no technique tutorial — and that’s the point. This is a chance for you to choose from a bounty of beautiful, seasonal blooms and build a bouquet entirely in your own style. If you’ve ever wanted a flower workshop that gives you complete creative control, this one’s for you.
So, what exactly is a Pick & Mix Flower Bar?
Think of it as a dream buffet — only instead of sweets, you’ve got rows of stunning stems ready for the picking. This Advanced Flower Arranging Workshop gives you access to an abundant flower bar stocked with British-grown and seasonal flowers. You’ll choose your favourites, then settle into our cosy Bedfordshire flower school studio to design a hand-tied bouquet your way.
It’s a florist’s playground, really — a chance to experiment, to unwind, and to enjoy floristry for the sheer joy of it all for £40 per person (or less if you use the discount code at the bottom of this blog too!).
Who’s this advanced flower arranging workshop for?
This session is strictly for those with previous floristry experience — whether you’ve joined us before for a hand-tied class or you’ve dipped your toe in flowers elsewhere. It’s a perfect fit for past flower students who want to stretch their skills and explore their creativity in a relaxed, supportive space.
If you're newer to flower arranging, don’t worry — we’ve got lots of friendly and accessible beginner floristry classes on our flower workshops page. But this particular Advanced Flower Arranging Workshop is all about celebrating confidence and letting flower enthusiasts do their thing.
What you can expect:
A full flower bar brimming with seasonal stems
Time and space to create your own hand-tied bouquet
Gentle support available if you want it — but no formal tuition
Good company, great coffee/tea on tap
Your own florist’s haven for a couple of hours
And if you’d like to bring a vase along, go for it — or you can wrap your bouquet to take home in paper.
