Flower arrangement with local flowers
Welcome to the fantastic world of flowers. For a couple of hours, we let go of everything that spins around us and create with the absolute most beautiful flowers that the garden and nature have to offer right now. Lisa Winqvist from Sotehus blommor leads a workshop in creating floral arrangements with a focus on shape, color and flow. You will learn basic design principles, which can be a help in creation. But of course, when you know the rules, you are completely free to ignore them. During the workshop, we work on seeing details, shapes and lines. We set our mind to create as freely as possible and enjoy the moment. - Arranging flowers is a bit like meditation for me, but it is a form of meditation that is perfectly suited to be done in a group with lots of talk and lots of laughter, says Lisa Winqvist. You have the luxury of being able to choose from lots of freshly picked, locally grown flowers that Brittas and Lisa have brought from their respective cut flower farms. There will be many different beautiful flowers in lots of colors and shapes. You will receive tips on how to think when you choose your favorites for the event. You will learn to use methods that burden the environment as little as possible. The workshop is at Röstånga mill in Sussie's spacious and bright orangery and we offer sandwiches and coffee/tea.

1 occasion, 2h 30m
Britta, Lisa and Sussie welcome you to the farm Röstånga mill. While you have coffee, Lisa shows you how she creates her fancy and vibrant arrangements. Then you choose your material and make your own flower arrangement in your brought vessel. Lisa guides you through the creation and Britta is also on hand to support you.
Bring a container that holds water and has enough volume to hold a lot of flower stems. It can e.g. be a vase, a bowl, a wine cooler, a mug or a soup tureen. It is possible to buy a bowl at cost price on site. Flower fakirs (kenzan) can be purchased on site but are not necessary to run the workshop. The workshop is inside the orangery, which is sheltered from the wind and warm in June, but you are welcome to pick plant material in the nature surrounding the farm, so dress according to the weather.
Lisa Winqvist is a floral artist and flower grower in Southern Scania. We (Britta and Sussie) are so happy that we can invite Lisa to Röstånga molla and offer you this opportunity to learn more about floral design. Lisa is really talented and sees to each flower's characteristics and opportunities to shine together with its neighbors. This workshop has been very popular when we have organized it in the past so take the opportunity to book one of the few places.
