Along with the range of photo and video tutorials PresentPerfect Creations offer an opportunity to book flower making classes with Svetlana Faulkner, the designer/maker behind PresentPerfect Creations.

Workshops are delivered in small groups of up to 3 students at a time. If desired, the silk English rose can be made into a hat trim or a fascinator on the day.
Flower making classes take place in the picturesque English town of Stamford (http://www.visitstamford.com), where Svetlana lives and creates her flower pieces. If you need more information on how to get to the venue please contact us at enquiries@presentperfectcreations.com

What you’ll learn in this workshop:

❀ painting a variety of fabrics with silk dyes

❀ backing petlas and leaves with thin silk or lame fabrics

❀ shaping petals, leaves and the calyx with millinery tools

❀ assembling the silk rose through all the stages from the rose heart to attaching the calyx

❀ finishing the rose with a comb or otherwise if desired

Price includes all the required materials and supplies as well as tea/coffee and a light lunch.

Millinery tools are available for students to use, but you are encouraged to bring your own flower iron and a set of tools if you have them.

The workshop runs from 10 am till 5-6 pm depending on the complexity of the design and the progress on the students.

***PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS DESIGN REQUIRES SOME PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE IN FLOWER MAKING. IF YOU HAVE NEVER MADE ANY SILK MILLINERY FLOWERS BEFORE CONSIDER ATTENDING A CLASS ON A SIMPLER FLOWER FIRST
