Do you love the beautiful, rich tones and textures of Autumn? Celebrate the season by crafting a beautiful bespoke wreath to decorate your home!
You will learn how to make a wreath from start to finish in this creative workshop, using traditional methods, seasonal foliage and trims. Our head gardener Rebecca will give you an introduction to wreath making, the techniques, preparation of your wreath base, selecting and applying your foliage. Starting with a re-usable wire ring with a straw base, you will use a selection of seasonal flora such as dried flowers, grasses, seed pods and berries to create a beautiful, bespoke, autumnal wreath. There will be plenty of opportunity to add unique touches, ask questions and get some floristry hints and tips.
Your wreath is yours to keep and take home at the end of the workshop and will be perfect for displaying indoors, bringing those warm autumnal colours inside to brighten up your home.
After a morning spent in a fun and supportive learning atmosphere, with hot drinks and delicious cake provided, you will leave the workshop with …
- knowledge of wreath making techniques
- tips on growing, harvesting and drying flowers and seasonal foliage
- practical experience of working with dried and seasonal materials
- inspiration on how to apply and layer different colours, tones and textures
- your own beautiful autumn wreath to take home, and some creative fulfilment!
This could be a unique gift for someone special, or just a lovely treat for yourself!
