Whether you’re a seasoned plant lover or a curious beginner\, this workshop offers a peaceful\, creative escape—and a beautiful piece to take home. \nPre-registration is required. \n  \nMeet your instructor \nBlume & Vine \nBlume & Vine was born from the belief that flowers are more than decoration\, they are markers of life\, memory\, and meaning. From celebration to grief\, from the quiet moments in between to the milestones that shape us\, flowers tell our stories when words fall short. Founded in Clovis\, California\, Blume & Vine is a modern floral studio dedicated to intentional design\, sustainable practices\, and honest connection. Every arrangement is crafted with care\, using a blend of fresh\, dried\, and locally sourced blooms to reflect the emotion behind the moment. \nOur shop is inspired by the rhythm of real life a balance of softness and grit\, beauty and imperfection\, bloom and root. We honor the full spectrum of human experience through thoughtful floral design that feels personal\, warm\, and deeply grounded. Whether we’re creating wedding flowers\, memorial pieces\, everyday bouquets\, or custom installations\, our goal is simple: to create florals that feel like they belong to your story.
