The move away from floral foam use, towards more sustainable methods, has inspired many to come and learn how to create a funeral farewell tribute with a lower carbon footprint. Ali will demonstrate different alternative options, talk through the tips and tricks of foam-free methods, and how to avoid some of the mistakes. She will talk through design principles, and deciding on the shape and form of the piece, colour combinations as well as practical considerations.
The options are many; and the choice of mechanic depends entirely on the final destination of the tribute - will it be taken home by family members? Is it to be taken to the wake, or is it to be left behind with the loved one, in a crematorium garden, cemetary or burial ground.
Participants will go on to design and create their own foam-free small casket arrangement in moss, using a fabulous selection of foliage and seasonal flowers.
