After attending Hand-tide bouquets level 1 course I continued with this level 2 course. The course was well structured and focused on more advanced bouquet forms such as frame, gathered, cascade bouquets and funeral arrangements.
I appreciated the practical approach very much. The techniques were demonstrated clearly and individuals got enough attention and feedback both during the exercises and by showing finished examples. The seasonal materials were abundant and fresh. I had great fun working with different bouquet structures and also felt inspired to continue to the next level.
The atmosphere was international but relaxed. I would recommend anyone who already has spiral technique experience to sign up for this course, a nice intro to the floral world.
It was really interesting and helpful. Thanks
Syl was een keigoede lesgeefster, veel vakkennis en enthousiasme!
I enjoyed this course. I gained a lot of new skills and knowledge.
Waanzinnig leuke cursus!
Veel geleerd van Syl en ze gaf, tussen het boeketten maken door, ook hele nuttige tips en leuke weetjes m.b.t. de bloemen die we gebruikten.
