Collector Cottage Shop
Two Autumn Workshops to delight your senses
Autumn Blooms Workshop
We’re delighted to invite you to a special flower arranging workshop, Autumn Blooms, presented in partnership with Mood Creative Studio in Canberra.
Your morning will begin with a live floral demonstration by award-winning grower, florist, and owner Rachel Torrealba of Collector Cottage. Rachel will share her signature approach to natural, garden-inspired arranging, along with tips on working with seasonal blooms.
You’ll then create your own beautiful arrangement to take home, using stunning dahlias and a curated selection of fresh seasonal flowers – all specially grown and hand-harvested from Rachel’s micro flower farm in Collector.
To make the experience even more special, each attendee will receive a professionally captured portrait with their finished floral creation, photographed by Tracey in the studio. You’ll receive your beautifully edited digital image via email a few days after the workshop – perfect as a keepsake, for sharing, or for use in your personal or business branding.
Then relax and enjoy a delicious morning tea together featuring a thoughtful selection of teas and treats made by local artisans.
Spend a slow and creative morning with us at Mood Creative Studio, surrounded by beautiful Collector Cottage flowers, natural light, and good company.
