2018 Floral Design Class Schedule



Learn new floral design skills with our fun workshops in pavé floral design. From beginners to experienced floral designers, there is something for everyone in our classes. Learn how to build the foundation for your floral arrangement, to finishing touches as well as tricks of the trade. We teach secrets to make your floral arrangements last longer. At the end of the evening take home a beautiful floral arrangement with a value of $125 that you have created and a gift bag of tools worth $25 to make it even easier create beautiful florals on your own.


Texture Box
In addition to our popular classes in pavé floral design, we have added two new classes this year. Students have long been asking for a class to learn how to make our intricate Texture Box arrangements and our first Texture Box class is scheduled for April 19th! We supply everything you need and teach you how to layer in levels of texture and detail to create your own personalized floral work of art.
Succulent Planter

We also have a new class for students to make their own succulent garden. Students will select from a wide variety of succulents and we will walk you through how to combine different varieties to the best effect. Detailed care instructions are also included. 

Our pavé floral design classes are scheduled from 6:00 pm to 9:15 pm and are held in our Greenlake studio. Registration is $165 or $150 each when two or more people register at the same time. 

Our Texture Box classes and upcoming succulent planter workshops are only $100 and last for two hours. 


Private Class for a Shower


Private classes are available for groups of six or more and can be held in our studio or off-site. You may bring your own food and wine or have your class catered. Pricing for private classes varies depending on class size, location, and itinerary. Call or email with the details of what you had in mind and we can create a customized class just for you. 

Floral design classes make a great gift! Gift certificates may be purchased online or by calling the studio at 206.329.3944.

If you are like many of our students, you will want to take more than one class. We have two options for you to do that. If you are not sure which classes that you would like to take you may purchase a gift certificate for classes and choose your class later. This option may save you money if you purchase a gift certificate for two of our pave floral design classes. Visit our class gift certificate page on Verlocal for more details. 

A second option is to purchase a bundle of classes. Our bundled packages will save you money and give you some flexibility on picking the dates of the classes that you would like to attend. Class bundles may be purchased by calling us at (206) 329-3944 or on our Verlocal page. Use the drop down menu labeled "Options" at the top of the Verlocal page to browse our bundled packages of classes.

We were the first florist in Seattle to teach floral design classes in our studio. Since 2007, hundreds of students have taken our classes and learned valuable tips. Our methods are simple and the techniques are easy to put into use in most styles of floral design. Many students have gone on to pursue a career in floral design, while others have put their new skills to use creating beautiful arrangements for personal enjoyment and as gifts.  Here is what some of them have said about the classes::

"I have had the distinct pleasure of ordering and receiving floral creations from Fiori Floral Designs and Miles Johnson on multiple occasions and the arrangements are always breath taking. Knowing the quality of design of Fiori creations I was privileged to take a peony arranging class from Miles and I learned more than I had any idea I did not know about flower arranging. I was astounded and delighted with the results. I went home that evening with much more than a beautiful arrangement; I left with the confidence, knowledge, and tools to continue making lovely floral arrangements for friends and myself. The class was a truly enlightening and uplifting experience that I value greatly to this day. I highly recommend Fiori Floral Designs to all my family and friends."                                                         - Mary M.  06-06-2017

"Amazing class! Learned SO much! Thank you!"                                                            - Kathryn M. 11-3-2017

"I took a class and had a great time learning and making a beautiful arrangement, for sure it won't be my only class. 5 stars"                                                       - Nayeli S. 06-16-2017

"Thank you for such a wonderful class on Tuesday night. You are a great teacher, and I truly appreciated your tips and thoughtful supplies. I look forward to future classes with Fiori!"                                                       - Tara S.

Introducing Bloomerent





We have partnered with Bloomerent to give brides and event hosts a way to ensure that their centerpieces won’t go to waste at the end of the evening. By working with Bloomerent we are able to list your centerpieces in their online database. Another event occurring around the same time as your wedding can "opt in" to your centerpieces and we will repurpose your flowers and deliver them to the other event. All you have to do is choose your flowers! Not only will you save money by sharing your flowers, but you will ensure that they get a second life at another wedding or special occasion. 
If you are looking to save money on centerpieces you can select from the list of available arrangements that our clients are offering and save from 40% to 60% on them. We pick the centerpieces up from their first use and bring them back to our studio and freshen them up before delivering them to you or you can save even more money by picking them up from our studio near Greenlake. We can even make minor changes to them to accommodate your palette.
We began our partnership with Bloomerent in March 2017. More centerpieces will become available as more of our clients choose to participate in this exciting program.
Bloomerent has been featured as an eco-friendly alternative in Martha Stewart Weddings, Brides Magazine, The Huffington Post, CNN and Inc. magazine.
