August 2014
On camera - and trying not to melt!

Coming soon....
 

We must have been filming in the hottest week of the year! Quite the challenge for lighting not to mention appearances. After three and a half days intensive filming we got all the necessary footage to complete the 7 part class that will go live mid-September. I also have a whole new respect for TV presenters!


 

My class will be called; 

  

GORGEOUS GARDEN DESIGN; 

Foliage & Focal Points 

 

The course is featured by Craftsy - an online educational program that has over 3.5 million subscribers worldwide. Foundation classes were on topics such as quilting and jewelry making but they have broadened their offerings significantly to include some excellent photography, cooking, woodworking, fine arts and gardening classes with more being added each month.
 

I am one of the gardening trailblazers! You can get a FREE glimpse into the quality of the HD videos by watching this great mini class by my good friend and fellow gardening designer/author Rebecca Sweet.
