Guest Workshop Leader in Durham: Trish Koontz

Trish Koontz wears many hats as a real estate broker, a retired schoolteacher, a certified dog trainer, mom, wife, and passionate gardener (check out her
extensive gardens). Trish grew up in a family florist and commercial orchid greenhouse business. She started designing at an early age under the tutelage of her gifted award-winning mother. Trish had her own florist shop for many years and has won a number of design competitions herself. She designs now for family, for fun, and occasionally for special celebrations such as weddings.

In the upcoming workshop you will create a "Daring Duet" design with tips and tricks provided by Trish. Using the garden materials cut from the Witherspoon gardens, you'll learn how to choose a dramatic duet of colors and then combine them into a striking table piece suitable for many occasions. Hope you will join us!
