Flower arranging classes in Los Angeles, with Bita
Small, hands-on floral classes in Beverly Hills for beginners and enthusiasts, plus private and group workshops anywhere in Los Angeles.
Classes with Bita
An afternoon with flowers
Bita’s classes are relaxed and generous. You arrive to a table set with buckets of fresh flowers, a vase, clippers and everything else you need. She walks you through choosing stems, building a shape, balancing color and making the arrangement last. You leave with a finished piece you made yourself and a few tricks you will use every time you buy flowers.
No experience is needed. Classes are small so everyone gets Bita’s attention, and the same designer who builds Diamond Vase arrangements and event florals is beside you the whole time.

Which class is for you
Bita teaches through the year, always with what is blooming right now. Text 310-858-0095 to hear what is coming up.
Seasonal floral class
Offered through the year and built around what is blooming: fall arrangements, winter holiday centerpieces, spring garden style, summer bouquets. All materials included.
Holiday flowersNorouz class
Every spring before the Persian new year, Bita teaches a class devoted to the haft-seen table: hyacinth (sonbol), tulips, narcissus and spring branches arranged for the sofreh. Bring a friend, your mother or your daughter. It is her most popular class and it sells out.
Norouz flowers and the haft-seenChildren’s session
Ask Bita about a short arranging session for children, as a party activity or a holiday afternoon: bright, easy flowers, a vessel to take home and a designer who is happy to be asked why.
Kids’ birthday flowers
