Alchemy Academy private studio or garden sessions
Private studio or garden session
Completely personalized and customized for you or the person you are gifting it too. After purchase I will reach out personally to make the arrangements to set up a time, if added to an arrangement being delivered they will receive a note with booking info as well.
Come into the studio for some hands on designing or set up a time to investigate what can be created with what's growing in your own backyard (you might be surprised!) Create a lush centerpiece with local foliage, build long lasting wreathes, and garlands, design wearable flowers for a special occasion; even take on a large installation or tackle bridal bouquets. We could even schedule a foraging field trip or a trip to one of the local flower farms I buy from. I've been doing this for over 23 years and I'm an open book, I'm eager to share all I've learned and the joy that comes from creating something beautiful with nature's bounty.
I'm including the presumed cost of products I assume we'll use based on the amount of time selected, So ,it's subject to change if you have something very specific in mind. Feel free to give me a call at the studio if you have any questions about how these work. 503.236.4286, please leave a message if you don't catch me there, my hours are very irregular.
Rachel provided a terrific custom experience. I had such a good time working with her and learning from her knowledge and experience - and together we created a really spectacular Halloween centerpiece. I'm grateful for the personal attention. And the shop is really cute!
Got this as a birthday gift for my gardener mom and she was beyond thrilled and had the best time learning how to arrange what is in her garden!
We were first smitten by Rachel's work and By the Bunch after a fresh flower anniversary arrangement work delivery that became the envy of all in my office. So unique, fresh, and beautiful--the first of many! More recently, when we learned that Rachel was hosting private sessions we splurged on a date day lesson she crafted and hosted just for us (along with her darling shop cat Chewy!). Per our wishes, under Rachel's expert guidance, and with an abundance of super fun materials from her magical shop space, we learned how to make wreaths and had SO MUCH FUN doing so. We continue to use the skills she taught us in making wreaths and look forward to another session soon. Rachel is a truly inspired, down-to-earth, kind-hearted, plant magic-making dear heart, and if you have an opportunity to work with her or to enjoy/share her creations don't pass it up!
Whatever Rachel creates it's what I desire--a bunch of flowers, some stems of this zany plant or that, an arrangement... You name it floral-wise and Rachel will bring it to life in ways you can't even imagine. We have lived in six states and, finally, I have found someone with a vision and creativity that simply seeps from her mind to her fingers and into a receptacle. Mundane is an adjective that never enters her thought process. Prepare yourself for spectacular in a subtle way.
