This workshop could be named "Halloween, But Make It Sophisticated”. Forget the plastic spiders (for this class, anyway) and neon orange. This is Halloween for grown-ups: moody, dramatic, and just a little deliciously witchy.
We’ll play with black calla lilies, deep dark roses, thistles, dried wheat, and smoke bush to create arrangements that feel mysterious and refined—perfect for an elevated Halloween table or a quietly glamorous evening at home.
Think candlelight, deep tones, and that subtle edge of mystery that makes guests lean in and ask, “Who designed this?”
All materials needed to create your divine design are provided, along with step-by-step guidance. We provide bottled water, small snacks, and soft drinks for your enjoyment. Feel free to BYOB.
About cancellations: Due to the advance preparation for this workshop, cancellations made after October 12th are non-refundable. Cancellations prior to October 12th will receive a full refund. If you're unable to attend, we're happy to make your arrangement. Your friends can either bring it to you, or you can pick-up from the shop. You are welcome to find someone who would enjoy attending class in your place.
Ask us about booking your own private event! We love bridal showers, bachelorette parties, birthday parties, and corporate team building experiences!
