Maurice shares an overview of what you’ll make and how he became a star floral designer with two TV shows. He challenges you to explore your creative influences and covers where to find flowers, how to identify healthy stems, which tools you’ll need, and more.

Using roses, Maurice teaches you to build a pavé, a classic design to help you hone foundational skills. Learn the importance of mechanics and how to weave stems into a perfect dome-shaped arrangement. Maurice also demonstrates his “asymmetrically symmetrical” design approach.

Let’s bring more flowers into the mix! Construct a long and low table arrangement to wow guests at your next party. Choose flowers that set the tone, prepare your vase, build a foundation of greens, and add “supporting actors” and “stars” to create balance and drama.

Seasonality is a floral designer’s greatest tool. Using the freshest flowers available, learn the fundamentals of hand-tied bouquets. Maurice shows you how to get stems ready to slide into place, so you can focus on weaving a beautiful spiral bouquet fit for a bride.

A wreath brings the joys of the season to your front door. Whether you’re using a premade wreath or one you built, this arrangement focuses on embellishment—a speciality Maurice learned from his grandmother. Grab some bling and a glue gun, and let’s decorate!

With floral design skills under your belt, it’s time to explore your vision. Maurice shares a demonstration of his unique style, “natural opulence.” He walks you through his approach to expressing yourself through flowers so that you can construct a masterpiece all your own.

Floral design is no easy task, and the only way to succeed is to trust the process. Maurice offers some practical advice to build on the skills you’ve learned and continue on the journey to developing your artistic style and using flowers to tell your story.
