The two-session event provided participants with an opportunity to create beautiful floral gifts while learning professional floristry techniques in a warm, collaborative atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Participants were supplied with all necessary materials, including carnations (symbolising motherly love, gentleness, and gratitude), filler flora such as eucalyptus and mist flower, and arranging tools like oasis foam and scissors. Guided by an expert instructor, students mastered the radial arrangement method, where blooms were artfully positioned to radiate outward from a central focal point, creating balanced and visually striking designs. Practical tips for prolonging the freshness of arrangements, such as avoiding direct sunlight and regular misting, were also shared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI never realised arranging flowers could be so therapeutic,\u201d shared one attendee while carefully positioning carnations. \u201cThis workshop gave me the perfect way to show love to my mom back home.\u201d The venue buzzed with excitement as students enjoyed a therapeutic break from academic pressures, engaging in meaningful conversations with peers as they crafted their gifts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/gs.eduhk.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250509_flower-arrangment_2-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3107\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gs.eduhk.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250509_flower-arrangment_2-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gs.eduhk.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250509_flower-arrangment_2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gs.eduhk.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250509_flower-arrangment_2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gs.eduhk.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250509_flower-arrangment_2-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/gs.eduhk.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250509_flower-arrangment_2-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/gs.eduhk.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250509_flower-arrangment_1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3104\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gs.eduhk.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250509_flower-arrangment_1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gs.eduhk.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250509_flower-arrangment_1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gs.eduhk.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250509_flower-arrangment_1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gs.eduhk.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250509_flower-arrangment_1-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/gs.eduhk.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250509_flower-arrangment_1-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Graduate School hosted a heartfelt Flower Arrangeme &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/gs.eduhk.hk\/zh-hant\/event-highlight\/postgraduates-celebrate-mothers-day-at-flower-arrangement-workshop\/\">Continued<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":3104,"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"class_list":["post-2610","event-highlight","type-event-highlight","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gs.eduhk.hk\/zh-hant\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event-highlight\/2610","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gs.eduhk.hk\/zh-hant\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event-highlight"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gs.eduhk.hk\/zh-hant\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/event-highlight"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gs.eduhk.hk\/zh-hant\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3104"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gs.eduhk.hk\/zh-hant\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2610"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
