Christmas Wreath Making Workshop
“Outstanding wreath-making workshop. The best I have ever attended”
Join Anne Daniels, Susie Spain, and Alice Spain for a festive, hands-on workshop where you’ll design and create your very own Christmas wreath in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere.
You’ll start with a 12-inch metal wreath ring, wiring fresh sprigs of greenery around the base to create a lush foundation. From there, you’ll layer in decorative greenery such as holly, ivy, and conifers, before finishing your wreath with pinecones and other festive touches.
We’ll provide a selection of materials to get you started, including:
Fresh greenery (holly, ivy, conifers)
Pinecones in various shapes and sizes (natural or spray-painted)
To make your wreath truly unique, please bring along any personal touches you’d like to include, such as small Christmas decorations, baubles, lights, natural materials, or ribbons to match your colour scheme. A small selection of ribbons and baubles will also be available to purchase on the day.
It is ESSENTIAL to bring:
An apron to protect your clothes
Gloves (gardening or plastic) to protect your hands
A pair of secateurs or old scissors for cutting foliage
Wire cutters (if available)
Optional: ribbon, tinsel, or extra decorations to personalise your wreath
Come and enjoy a joyful, creative workshop and take home a beautiful handmade wreath to brighten your Christmas season.
