Join acclaimed florist and floral stylist Willow Crossley for a special festive wreath making workshop.
In the morning you’ll watch Willow demonstrate as she designs and creates wreaths by hand using different types of fresh foliage, showing the various techniques she uses to create different effects.
Following lunch, it’s then a hands-on session where you will get to create your own wreath under the guidance of Willow. At the end of the day you’ll leave with a professionally styled wreath to take home and enjoy over the Christmas season.
All required materials are included and the workshop is suitable for all levels with no experience necessary.
aprons are provided for use on the day, but we advise not to wear your finery!
