Learn how to create wild and soulful everlasting designs from my Devon studio
I can help you learn how to grow, harvest and create with dried flowers. One to ones (or two to one if you wanted to come with a loved one) are bespoke workshops tailored specifically to your personal requirements.
Nestled in the lush green hills of the very eastern boarders of Devon (just a stones throw from Lyme Regis, Dorset) my cabin and studio are the perfect place to come together to play with a mix of foraged and homegrown (dried by me) finds. Together we will make wild, soulful creations that teach us how to bring nature into our homes.
Private Workshops
Join me in my Devon studio for a half or full day workshop curated specifically for you.
One to one (or one to two) classes are held throughout the year, with the best time to visit spring through to autumn when the gardens are in full growth and glory.
Together we will create beautiful, ethereal designs, with techniques and skills being shared abundantly. As a self taught artist I have perfected my ways of making and love nothing more than spreading that creative love. In a half day we can cover smaller creations such as wreath making or bouquet designing, whereas a full day would allow us to dive into installation work. Throughout your time with me I am available to talk to you about business related topics, following your dreams and growing and drying flowers.
Cost depends on the content of the class but start at £365 for half a day and £600 for a full day. Installation workshops are a bigger investment due to materials used.
1:1 Mentoring
and Guidance
One-to-one flower and business mentoring sessions.
I’ve been running my business for over seven years now, starting small, slowing building up to taking the plunge and embark on this floral journey full time three years ago. Prior to my flowery world I worked for many years in marketing and event organising.
Over the past three years I have supported many other small business owners with their creative journey. I have taught private workshops, spoken at conferences and guided individuals with businesses issues, the ins and outs of growing and drying flowers and so much more.
So its with great excitement that I am opening up my books for mentoring sessions this year. These sessions are completely bespoke to you, with a focus on your issues and opportunities, be it marketing, finding your ideal customer, growing flowers for drying and the tricky business of drying flowers and then storing them.
The sessions can be conducted online with a recording sent through for re plays. If you’d like to find out more please get in touch.
Prices start at £75 for one hour

“My heart is filled with joy, my head with inspiration as I return home from a workshop with Bex Partridge of Botanical Tales. Bex’s organic approach as an artist of flower drying is an extension of herself. She is as natural, genuine and engaging as the landscape that surrounds her.
