Do You Pin?

Here at Bloom College we LOVE Pinterest.  So much so, that we encourage all of our students (in particular the Career Change floristry students) to create an account and set up boards of things they love.

Are you just starting out with Pinterest? Once set up, we suggest you start with broad keywords such as ‘floral arrangements’, ‘vintage flowers’ and ‘wedding bouquet’.

You’ll soon see patterns emerging in what types of styles speak to you, and what you’re leaning towards.  You’ll also find inspiration when you’re looking to try something new.

If you’re attending our upcoming Event Styling or Wedding Bouquet workshops you may like to check out our ‘Wedding Flowers’ board, which has Chuppah’s, bouquets, table arrangement ideas – and heaps of other inspiration.

Happy Pinning!
