Through this course you will use original pattern instructions from 1920s-1950s to make a variety of vintage ribbon and fabric flowers mounted as fascinators, headbands or as corsages. Ideal for those interested accessorising special occasion wear, as gifts or for bridal wear.

This is a great opportunity to learn the lost skill of making handmade flowers, take inspiration from history and get creative! Through a series of practical demonstrations, you will learn how to make flowers using a variety of materials such as ribbon-folded flowers, roses out of cotton organdie and felt flower bouquets. Your practical making sessions will be complimented by sessions on design and identifying sources of inspiration to ensure your work is considered and contemporary. There will therefore be the opportunity to develop your own designs using the skills learnt and having explored the possibilities of each of the materials.

This course is great for beginners and the more experienced who wish to explore fabric flower making. By the end you will leave with several finished pieces and the skills to develop your work further.
