Cariza said: Louise was amazing and very hands on. She helped us one by one when they were struggling with our bows and arrangements. Each student has their reasons why they enrolled to this course and she was very flexible that is altered the curriculum to cater to our needs. I had a great experience and will definitely enrol to her next course!

Suzanna said: I thoroughly enjoyed the intro flower arrangement course given by Louise. She is clearly very skilled in her craft and her step by step instructions allowed me to create some amazing bouquets of flowers that I could take home each lesson - what a bonus! The early morning visit to the flower market with Louise was great too (not part of the course but just ask). A highly recommended course - thanks Louise!
