What happens when you get three floral designers together? THEY HAVE FUN!!!
Dawn (the very first person to work at Kimberly’s), Lisa and I went to “The Four Season’s Resort” for a floral design class - one never knows when one might learn a new trick or two!!
We had a ball and yes we learned a few new tips - Costa Ricans are known for their “green” approach to the environment and it is even reflected in their floral designing.
Finished florals - heading back to Companion!
We had so much fun learning and watching - I shared one of the braiding/weaving techniques that I knew - now I am “signed” up to teach a class to all of their designers on April 23 - they are eager to learn … and gain just a couple of tips from the United States! Can’t wait!
Once the instructors and interpreter realized that we were florists; we were invited on a “behind the scenes” tour of their studio - such an immaculately clean place and so well organized. They change the resorts floral arrangements daily and plan all of the events - so we were allowed to view the “event” florals and setup in the golf club for the evening.
They called it the “Tropical Jungle” theme - what a treat for us to see.
Inspired us! And guess what - we are never to old to learn!
Enjoyed the evening - new friendships formed and old one rekindled - it is good to be florists!!
