Fabulous Floral Fundamentals Workshop

Posted by emediaofficer on

25 members from across Dorset had a super day with National Tutor Julia Harrison learning two basic flower designs. An enjoyable and worthwhile day for those absolute beginners and those with some knowledge.  The day was hosted and organised by the JDE&S committee with the Area helping with the costs.

 

 

 

Fabulous Area Day

Posted by emediaofficer on

The Hamworthy Club was packed with D&G Members in eager anticipation of another successful Area Day organised by the JDE&S Committee.

 

They were not disappointed. In the morning Pip Bensley gave a very informative illustrated talk on plants for a flower arrangers garden. What a wealth of information Pip was able to pass on, many people were seen scribbling down notes ready for a trip to a nursery or garden centre.

After a much appreciated hot lunch, members were taken on a “Flight of Fancy” by national demonstrator Gill McGregor. Gill produced a lovely range of designs accompanied by entertaining patter.

 

Thanks to JDE&S for another great day.
