Bloom
in Community

A creative liturgy designed to out-quiet the modern world. This is an intimate gathering centred around a shared table. The table moves with the seasons, some gatherings in Zoetermeer, some further out.  Always close. Together, we work with raw, seasonal textures to unearth the unspoken truths hidden inside original design. You don't need a busier schedule. You need space to slow down, touch something real, and remember who you were created to be before the noise started. We gather seasonally, around a shared table, wherever it happens to be that season. No experience needed. Just your hands and a couple hours to spare.

Seats run around €55 to €75 depending on the gathering. 
Details for the next dates are below.

A recurring seasonal workshop

How the day unfolds

You arrive to a table already dressed in the season, whatever's grown, foraged, and in bloom that week. No instructions waiting for you, no rules about doing it right. Just buckets of stems, good light, and a chair.
We start slow. Hands go into water before they go into words, most people are quiet at first, and that's exactly as it should be. Somewhere in the middle of trimming and placing, something shifts. Conversation starts happening without anyone trying to make it happen. Someone laughs at their own crooked stem. Someone else asks the person next to them a real question.
By the end, the table looks different than it did at the start, flowers in hand, tea gone cold, something made that wasn't there before. You leave with an arrangement. Most people also leave with a conversation they didn't expect to have, or a face they'll look for again next season.

CONFIRMED DATE

The Autumn Table

A seasonal gathering at Habibi Vlissingen, 17 October
Whether it is a table of old friends, or a quiet room of strangers who won't stay strangers. Flowers have a way of opening people.
On Saturday, 17 October, I am bringing the MK Floral Atelier table to the beautiful, welcoming space of Habibi Vlissingen for an intimate autumn creative afternoon.

True to the atelier's philosophy, this workshop is entirely foam free. I will teach the professional art of structural styling using reusable chicken wire grids. It is a sustainable, timeless technique that allows stems to rest at their most natural, honest angles.

Foam free and
rooted in nature
