In-Person Workshops

Hands-On Flower Preservation Training in Arlington, TX

Have you been dreaming of creating beautiful, lasting keepsakes with flowers — but feel stuck, frustrated, or unsure where to start?

Maybe you’ve already tried drying or working with resin on your own, but the results haven’t turned out how you hoped.

You’re not alone. So many beginners (and even those who’ve been dabbling for months) struggle with the same things: flowers that brown, resin that bubbles, and advice online that just doesn’t work.

That’s exactly why I created these in-person workshops. Instead of piecing things together from random tutorials, you’ll learn directly from me in a supportive, hands-on environment where I can guide you step by step. You’ll get immediate feedback, personal instruction, and the confidence you need to finally move forward.
