Spring flowers and the underlying mechanics, DIY Flower Design classes, The Camellia,Thunder Bay

It's no secret..Flowers make a person Happy. They are cheerful, smell wonderful, and are uplifting to the spirit. A lot of us would like to know how to arrange flowers, especially if we have just retired and now have the time to take up some new pursuits. In Thunder Bay, you can take a Floral Design class at The Camellia, in Slate River. Here you will learn the mechanics behind the design, like this upside down wire planter, which will help support a large amount of fresh flower stems.

Masses of roots also make good flower structures. Look at these beautiful eucalyptus stems...you can almost smell them!
