Give the gift of Tallulah Rose

Tallulah Rose Gift Vouchers

With December just about to pop its little wintry head around the corner, we're offering Tallulah Rose gift vouchers as a gift idea this year. So with the Christmas countdown about to begin, if you're struggling to know what to squeeze into a stocking this year, why not give a special experience rather than a pair of socks (albeit cashmere ones)?

Each voucher costs £150.00 and is redeemable against all any of our 2014 Day Courses. Our day courses take place in our creative school rooms, full of floral inspiration for any flower lover. They are designed to suit all abilities and we aim to give an insight into professional floral design in a relaxed and fun environment.

Gift vouchers are easy to order* - simply email us at hell@tallulahroseflowers.com and we will get our elves on the case. They will arrive beautifully packaged so all you have to do is pop it under the tree, or slip it in a stocking!

*Last orders will be taken on Tuesday 16th December to allow for Christmas postal services.

Come and feel festive with us

Because we're a kind bunch and love a good bit of old fashion sharing at flower school we've pencilled in two evening courses this December so that you can join us in the school room for some festive cheer!

Now don't get me wrong, I love a good lunch as much as the next person, but nothing says Christmas quite like a glass of fizz and candle-light, so we're opening up the school room on two evenings and inviting you to come and feel festive with us.

The Christmas wreath evenings are taking place on Thursday the 5th and 12th of December and are £40.00 per person. All your gorgeous materials are included, as is a glass of fizz and we'll show you step by step how to make a beautiful door wreath - we're good like that!

Festive Flowers

We hope you managed to tune in to our 'Deck the Halls' event at the Royal Crescent Hotel last week, where Rona of Flowerona was live tweeting as we went! We had an amazing day dressing the iconic hotel for Christmas and our past students did us proud with all their hard work. Their work was stunning and by the evening the hotel had been transformed by flora and candlelight. Thanks to all those involved, too many to mention by name here, but all very much appreciated!

We're back at the hotel on Tuesday 3rd December with our Festive Flower Masterclass led by Director Rachel. If you fancy the idea of learning how to create your own festive flowers we still have limited places available. You can see our website for details or simply drop us a line at hello@tallulahroseflowers.com and we'll get back to you straight away.

Deck the Halls

We are so excited today as operation 'Deck the Halls' kicked off at the Royal Crescent Hotel here in our very own beautiful city of Bath.

A few months ago we invited our past students to help us dress the hotel for Christmas and the response was so overwhelming - we are thrilled that people have travelled far and wide to get involved today. It's the first time we've opened up our extra curricular activities to our graduates and it's just so lovely to see everybody working on a very special project together.

We are busily tweeting about the day and this afternoon, Rona Wheeldon of Flowerona will be joining us and live tweeting from the hotel.If you'd like to keep up with the day's events and see all the wonderful flowers that will be decking the halls you can find us on Twitter @tallulahrosey and follow the hashtag #deckthehalls for our live feed.

Business Week

We've kicked off Week Three of our November career course with the all important business branding. 

Our students have spent the last two weeks obsessing over floral design. They've been practising and practising their hand tie technique, getting to grips with large scale oasis work and intricate detailed wiring. 

Bridal bouquets and kicks!

Flowers and kicks, it's how we roll...

The start of the week saw the November career course students immersed in bridal work and on Monday they created some crazy beautiful bridal bouquets.

We teach various types of bouquet here at the flower school so that our budding florists are well equipped to cater for all sorts of bride and dress shape. Monday saw the traditional hand tie, a wildly intricate wired bouquet and an elaborate cascade. The kicks came courtesy of Sam and we LOVE!

If you would like to learn how to tie a bridal bouquet, don't forget that our Spring 2014 Day Course timetable is now live so take a look on the website and see if there's a date that suits you...we'd love to show you how!*

*Kicks optional but preferred!

Winter wreaths

With winter well and truly here, the days getting shorter and the nights drawing in, we cheered ourselves up in the school room yesterday with colourful wreaths.

We took our inspiration form the grand Georgian doorways that line the streets of Bath and created a beautiful muted wreath that would look lovely against a dark blue / grey door.

If you would like to learn how to make your own gorgeous wreath we are offering a Festive Masterclass with director Rachel at the Royal Crescent Hotel on Tuesday the 3rd of December. Places are limited and you can take a look online for details of how to book here.

We love flowers

This time last week Team Tallulah were in their dungarees busily painting the new school room and getting everything ready for the November term. To be honest, we make better florists than decorators so we were glad to put down the brushes and pick up the flowers again this week.

If you've been reading our blog for a while we're guessing you love flowers as much as we do so we thought we'd tell you about our next Taster Day which takes place on Saturday the 16th November. It's the last one of the school year and is absolutely free to pop along to - all we ask is that you email us to book your place so that we can be on good friendly name terms when you arrive.

You can read more about the day on our website www.tallulahroseflowers.com and simply email us at hello@tallulahroseflowers.com if you'd like to know more.

We'd love to meet you and talk flowers x
