In these classes you will be taught how to make a variation of beautiful flowers and the course will explore techniques in cutting silks and then hand dyeing them. By the end of each class you would have learned how to prepare and create own bespoke Lily

or Peony

or Camillia and Poppy Flower.

Looking at the history of flower making, artificial flowers have been around for at least 3000 years. They were mentioned in the Old Testament – Book of Kings, when the Queen of Sheba tested Solomon with various riddles to see if he is wise and worthy. In one test, she asked him to distinguish which of the twelve lilies are real. Solomon observed that Bees would only settle on the real flowers, ignoring the artificial ones.

Another example is during the middle ages. Nuns begun making artificial flowers from silk to decorate church statues with flowers during the winter, while relying on fresh flowers during the summer. It soon became a church regulation that only silk or metal flowers were to be used for decorating altars.

In the 19th Century, flowers were used more often in fashion: to decorate clothing, for hat trimmings and in artful hairstyles which then spread throughout the world.
