Compote Centerpiece vs. Garden Gems Centerpiece

Date
Aug, 06, 2022

Two of the most popular centerpiece arrangement floral design classes I offer are:
Compote Centerpieces and Garden Gems Centerpieces

Here's the Difference ~~

Compote Centerpieces — this is the larger of the two floral arrangements. These arrangements are designed in an elevated, footed vessel. The flowers and foliages tend to spill over the edges of the vessel creating a very lush, garden inspired design.  


Garden Gems Centerpieces — these floral arrangements are designed in glass vases. The look for these arrangements tends to be more rounded and textures are highlighted. Overall they are smaller in size compared to the Compote Centerpiece, however, they are still a good size to sit on a dining table and lush and full. I’ve dubbed this class as the ‘Garden Gems Series’ as it is an ongoing monthly class I’m offering on the schedule. 


In both of these classes a lovely selection of fresh, seasonal, as locally grown as possible flowers will be provided. Because I select flowers from my cutting garden and neighboring flower farmers the color palette tends to vary week-to-week as the garden follows mother nature’s lead. In both classes the vessels, a pair of flower snips, all foliages and flowers are includes, along with a box to carry home your finished piece. 

 

Both classes are open to all levels of floral design experience and are great for the home gardener who would like to learn how to arrange garden blooms.
