About the workshop~

Every rose has its... thorny bits.

The ever-popular rose is one of the most challenging gumpaste flowers to create. Feeling stuck? You're not alone! From construction to troubleshooting to dusting, this hands-on workshop is all about the unique process of the rose.

What you'll learn~

Using Maggie's perfect homemade gumpaste recipe, this two-day Clinic focuses on the technical and artistic aspects of roses. This workshop is a good fit for experienced, intermediate, and (adventurous) beginner students.
