Something for Everyone: The Purpose Behind All of My Winter Offerings

Every winter, I pour my heart into designing experiences that capture the magic of the season-the scent of fresh greens, the laughter that fills the studio, and that feeling of pride when you step back and admire something beautiful you've created. But over the years, I've learned that everyone connects with this season a little differently. Some love the full studio experience, others prefer a quiet evening at home, and some just want the greens to bring their own ideas to life.
That's why I've built my winter offerings to have something for everyone-different ways to enjoy Petals and Stems, all built around the same attention to quality, freshness, and style.

The Basic Greenery Bundles
For those who simply want beautiful, fresh greens to decorate with, the Basic Bundle is the perfect starting point.
Each bundle includes full 3lbs bundles of cedar, pine and fir- enough to design a full outdoor pot or a few smaller seasonal projects around your home. There's no instruction or added materials, just lush greens ready to be shaped into whatever you imagine. This option is the most budget-friendly way to bring Petals and Stems freshness to your home this winter.

The Ultimate Greenery Bundles
If you love the look and fullness of the designs used in my workshops, the Ultimate Bundle gives you that elevated touch.
It includes everything in the Basic Bundle, with the addition of willow, magnolia and oregonia- the same premium ingredients I use in my studio and at-home kits. There is no education or extras, just a rich, layered selection of greens to help you create show-stopping outdoor arrangements or entry pieces.

At-Home Kits with Video Tutorials
For anyone who enjoys crafting at their own pace but still wants a bit of guidance, the At-Home Kits are ideal. Each kit includes premium materials, a container, and access to a step-by-step video tutorial where I walk you through the entire process.
It's a wonderful way to design in your own home-whether you're doing it solo or hosting a cozy night in with friends.

In-Person Studio Workshops
For the ultimate experience, the In-Person Workshops bring it all together-connection, creativity, and that unmistakable holiday atmosphere. These evenings include curated snack tables (optional for private workshops), full step-by-step instruction, and every supply provided. You'll leave not only with a beautiful piece but with that feeling of calm and accomplishment that comes from taking time to create something by hand.

Why it Matters
Every one of these offerings was created with intention- to make Petals and Stems winter decor accessible, flexible, and inspiring.
Whether you're looking for a bundle to build your own outdoor pot, a kit to follow along at home, or a night out at the studio, you'll find an option that fits.
Because at the heart of Petals and Stems, it's always been about more than just the "workshops"- it's about helping bring you warmth, nature, and a touch of beauty to your home this season, in whatever way feels right for you.
We look forward to opening up all buying options over the next number of weeks- Workshop Bookings open Tuesday Oct.14th, we look forward to getting creative with you this winter.
