We all want the same…
For the love of dogs, flowers, and a little everyday magic.
To have fun, get creative, and do a little bit of good at the same time, quietly fundraising in the background for our four-legged best friends.
I mean… that’s a pretty magical community. And it’s waiting for you at one of these workshops (and beyond).
2026 Workshops
‘for the love of dogs & flowers’
Sip & Style: Mother’s Day at Venn Valley 🌸🍷
Come and join us at Venn Valley for a relaxed, hands-on floral styling experience designed to be enjoyed together.
This special Mother’s Day workshop combines fresh spring flowers, a guided mini vineyard tour and wine tasting, all set in Venn Valley’s new larger space (so there’s plenty of room to create comfortably!).
I’ll guide you step-by-step as you create your own fresh seasonal table arrangement, sharing simple, confidence-boosting styling tips along the way. Whether you’re hosting a celebration or just love a beautifully set table, you’ll leave feeling inspired and ready to recreate the magic at home.
Throughout the session, Alina will weave in a mini vineyard tour and tasting of Venn Valley wines, so expect a glass (or two), plenty of conversation and a wonderfully relaxed pace.
Bring your mum, your favourite dog mum, a friend, your daughter or come along solo and enjoy a few hours doing something creative and a little bit different. Everyone is welcome.
You’ll head home with your finished centrepiece, new skills, and that lovely post-workshop glow that comes from flowers, wine and good company.
See you there! x

Saturday 3rd October (location TBC)
Come and join me in my magical garden studio for a hands-on, heart-filled workshop where we’ll celebrate the end of harvest season and the beauty of early Autumn.
I’ll show you how to identify and style ingredients from your garden, hedgerow (or even your kitchen!) to create a display that feels both wild and wonderful, using a mix of foraged foliage, berries, wheat and seasonal flowers to create a stunning floral centrepiece that you can take home and enjoy.
We’ll start with a welcome autumnal cocktail (soft drinks available too), followed by a relaxed demonstration followed some cosy homemade pumpkin pie! Then it’s your turn to get creative during the practical session, where you’ll craft your very own seasonal centrepiece to take home.
🍁 All materials provided
✂️ Please bring gardening gloves and your own scissors or secateurs
🥧 Includes cocktail, demo, seasonal treats, and your handmade display to take home along with a pillar candle (hurricane vase not included)
