Redbridge Designer Workshops get great reception

Yves PiagetThe first two Designer Workshops hosted by Redbridge Produce & Flowers took place at the end of September in Bristol and Cardiff. They are the first of an autumn programme which sees workshops in Gateshead (11th October), Liverpool (23rd October) and Southampton (25th October).

Responses from the florists who took part in the workshops have been magnificent :

“Full of ideas which will be used in the shop”
“I’ve very much enjoyed the experience and I can’t wait to attend the next one!”
“Very inspiring”
“Very valuable techniques to use”
“This was a great workshop. Good designs easily used in the shop. Will take a lot from this.”
“Brilliant! I will be going away today with further inspiration.”

The designer for these workshops, Peter van der Sluis, is only 25, but has already achieved more than most florists twice his age. Peter has eight international awards and competition wins, and has worked on the Dutch royal wedding, Hortifair, and Floriade; he has demonstrated right around the world, and has been running his own business since the age of 19.

He demonstrated four designs for the florists to follow and repeat; then he also showed half a dozen fast and stylish ways to present two or three stems of flowers and foliage - few flowers, but big impact.

To book your place for the last three workshops, or to find out more, please call Joanna on 01733 383908 or email flowers@redbridge-wholesale.co.uk
