Flowers have a way of transforming a space. Wild, natural, and effortless, they bring life, movement, and emotion into a home. In this course, renowned florist Willow Crossley shares her secrets to creating floral arrangements with ease and confidence. From her Cotswolds studio, she’ll guide you through sourcing flowers, choosing vessels, and arranging for every season and occasion. Through 14 hands-on projects, you’ll learn everything from hand-tied bouquets and show-stopping centrepieces to delicate buttonholes and candlelit tablescapes.

My hope is to show you the joy of flowers. I'll be showing you the mechanics and way I structure things - for you to develop your own style and way of putting things together. It's one of those things where the more you create, the more inspired you feel.

Willow welcomes you to the course and explains what first drew her to floristry, as well as why working with flowers isn’t just aesthetic; it can also have a profound impact on how you feel. NB - If you would like to download all of the course workbooks in one file rather than lesson by lesson, the full PDF attached is attached to this lesson.
Willow reveals her favourite floristry tools for use at home and events, including the best types of wire, tape, secateurs, string, pins, “frogs” and chicken wire.
Willow breaks down the florists she is most inspired by, and encourages you to develop confidence and style by slowly building your taste. She also explains how by allowing yourself to be inspired by nature and its imperfections, your arrangements will in turn be more magical.
You'll learn the core floristry techniques Willow uses professionally, including how to make a hand-tied bouquet using the spiral technique, how to build living spring wreaths, Christmas wreaths, garlands and mantelpiece displays, and how to condition flowers and foliage so arrangements last. Willow also shares her knowledge of seasonal ingredients, from eucalyptus and berried ivy to dried hydrangeas, statice and bleached ruscus, plus month-by-month flower lists in the course notes. By the end you'll understand the mechanics behind arrangements and be able to develop your own personal style.
