A very good friend has a birthday coming up, and she has always had a dream of being a florist - that said, she realises it's a dream, but still loves all things flowers.
I was thinking some kind of floristry course, but something that she could come away with [b]something[/b] from as well - either a membership, or basic level qualification, but more importantlysomething that will make her feel like she's got a little tick in that dream if you know what I mean, rather than just a flower arranging course that could be a bit "well, this is what you could be doing, but you're not!"
Any thoughts? Googling a bit 'meh' so far.
I'm not going to say money no object as it bloody is, but she's a lovely lass and I'm happy to fork out a few hundred if it's going to give her something enjoyable that she can look back on fondly.
Thanks.
Where is she/you?
She's Sheffield area, but happy to pay for accommodation/travel.

DWA together in That London, then. She'll love it.
The course, that is.

Oh, and
"... [i]THIS[/i] is for the flowers"
"That's OK, love, there's an empty vase on the windowledge"
I did BTEC in floristry, few years ago now though. Try City & guilds or the NVQ route?
I have a friend in New York who does very, very well out of 'floristry'. Single table arrangements for posh dinners can cost the client well over $100 each. Insane in my eyes, but there is a market for it.
