A new workshop is blooming!
A brand new workshop is coming in September! I've partnered with a beautiful boutique flower farm in Kernersville and an incredible gardner named Shellie to bring you an experience you'll never forget! On Saturday, September 30th from 2-5 p.m., we will build our own bouquets at the bloom bar, make our own botanical inks from flower petals and then I'll show you how to use that ink along with my handmade paints and watercolor stash to paint pretty floral stationery.
I've taken workshops at Shellie's place before and they are simply the best. The pictures I've included here are from a workshop I took at My Garden Blooms this spring with my mom. You can see Shellie's fancy treats, beautiful bloom bar and the incredible classroom too. September will showcase a different palette of blooms and treats, but I know they'll be just as breathtaking and delicious as they were in April.
Join me in the most beautiful outdoor patio classroom. Surround yourself with luscious blooms paired with creativity and good nibbles and you'll leave with memories of a perfect Saturday afternoon. You'll also keep your own hand-painted stationery, hand-made ink, plenty of natural ink recipes and your own breathtaking bouquet of fresh flowers to remember the day. I only teach workshops I’d want to take, and y’all… this one is going to be so fun!
All skill levels are welcome and all supplies, flowers and very special nibbles are included. Just bring your smile and a friend you want to share this with. Space is limited, and I only have room for about 12! The cost is $110 per person for this treat of all treats. I look forward to seeing you there.
To reserve your spot, call or text Shellie Ritzman today at 336.287.2186!

In other news, I have been hard at work getting the 2024 calendar ready to go, prepping the print shop for fall, and creating a brand new collection of paintings (So exciting! My next release will be in October). Calendar pre-orders are open for a few more weeks and the print shop will open again in October as well.
As always, thank you for your support!
With gratitude,
Katie
