This holiday season, personalized place cards are the elegant (and let’s be honest—adorable) touch your table’s been waiting for. Join us for a hands-on calligraphy and flowers workshop that celebrates creativity, connection, and a little pre-holiday sparkle.
We’ve teamed up with the talented Mian Gallardo Barrios, professional calligraphist, to learn the art of modern calligraphy just in time for the holiday season—think place cards, gift tags, and handwritten notes. Jelena, our Viola Floral founder, will guide you through designing a delicate bud vase—the prettiest companions to your calligraphed creations and a lovely little keepsake for your guests to take home.
Together, we’ll style a beautiful holiday tablescape full of warmth, texture, and Viola charm. All materials are included—just bring your creativity (and maybe your bestie).
Please Note
All workshops are non-refundable, but if something comes up, feel free to send a friend in your place—flower joy is always transferable. Please plan to arrive 15 minutes early to settle in, sip something refreshing, and get ready to bloom.

Viola Floral was founded in 2019 by Jelena Trifunovic — floral designer, science educator, and mom of three. Jelena was born and raised in Serbia and moved to Los Angeles at the start of the Yugoslav War in the early 1990s. She studied biology and took her love of science to the classroom — first as a high school teacher and then as a professor at Loyola Marymount University.
Jelena grew up arranging flowers with her mother, entertaining and hosting many gatherings both at home and at her family’s restaurant. After her mother passed away from pancreatic cancer in 2016, Jelena decided to pursue her passion for floral design by launching Viola Floral — honoring the bond the two women shared in a meaningful way. Viola Floral began as a labor of love and a path for Jelena to heal, but now (many years and tens of thousands of bouquets later), Jelena leads a team of designers who share her passion for flowers and floral education.
