November Floral Challenge

We are hoping you will jump into millinery and floral design for November 17 at the Rumson Country Club River House. We need 6 regular floral designers to work with 6 novices. I’m hoping we can create amazing hats or fascinators to be displayed at the evening cocktail meeting.

The event will start at 2pm and must be finished by 4pm. You will only need to bring clippers and or scissors. Materials will be provided. This is more about collaboration and creativity but the elements and principles of design are 50% of the scale of points.

“Celestial Toppers”

Team Challenge Design

“Only in the darkness can you see the stars.”

Each team, one novice and one regular designer, will work together to create a hat or fascinator with the supplies provided. Exhibitors will be paired randomly. The team will have 2 hours to finish their design piece. The hat will be placed on a mannequin head and displayed on a 30” high table covered by a white tablecloth. (6) entries.

Challenge Class

• At the show, all components, mechanics, containers, plant material, and accessories are supplied by the Flower Show Committee.
• The team must use a placemat and hairband as a base. Additional materials provided may or may not be used.
• Exhibitors will start with the same materials but will have an opportunity to go to the “share table” to utilize material that has not been used by the other teams.
