Most Wonderful Time of the Year (Pre-Recorded)

We will create designs with Mississippi foliages, branches, and berries. Learn about best buys during the holiday season for fresh materials.

Flowers, Spice, and Everything Nice

November is filled with warm hues, fragrances from the kitchen, and fun family gatherings. Let’s begin to prepare for this wonderful season.

Changes in Latitudes; Changes in Attitudes

This Jimmy Buffett song reminds us that an occasional attitude adjustment is necessary, and living with flowers can bring a grand result. Get ready for an hour of informative and fun ways to make every day brighter.

Back to School: Design School!

Emphasis on principles and elements of design, sanitation of containers and tools, and use of floral foods. These hot days of summer are great time to review, prepare, and re-center design practices.

School's Out for Summer!

Let's talk about ways to entertain children with flowers, foliages, and plants. We will talk about stories with flowers, rooting plants, sprouting seeds and even princess parties!

Flowers Just Like Mama Made

We will take a nostalgic look at floral design this month. Everything from containers, mechanics, and collected flowers just like our Mom’s might have used.

It’s April!!!

April! Our Own Special Earth Day! Celebrating the Out-of-Doors! Yards and gardens; highways and byways. Growing and collecting for floral design projects will be the focus of our April program.

Any Way the Wind Blows…

Will spring blow in like a Lion? Will our long winter linger? No doubt a few of our yard flowers will begin to emerge. Our shrubs including azaleas and forsythia may begin to bloom. No matter what we have to work with, we will be ready to design! Tools sharp; containers clean!

I ❤️ Flowers

February is the perfect time to enjoy bright colorful flowers indoors since it’s a bit gloomy outdoors. Lynette will use some of our favorite flowers and foliages and quick and easy designs.

New Eyes on a New Year

Our winter months can offer unique opportunities for floral design: bare branches, seasonal berries and evergreens, and warm finishes. Lynette will assist us to transition from our elaborate holiday decorating to longer-lasting floral designs for winter displays. January is a terrific time to continue to live with flowers.
