Small-group workshop with florist Cerus Jarvis to create a festive floral table centre piece, with all materials provided.
Cerus Jarvis is running a Christmas table centre piece workshop at Thrift Wood on Saturday 19 December, from 10 am to 12 pm. It's a two-hour session where you make your own festive floral arrangement to take home, and you don't need any prior experience to join in.
Jarvis runs the workshop from her own Christmas shop and studio, tucked away in the woods in Whaddon, a bit of a retreat from the usual December rush. She's been a florist for over twenty years and built the session around sharing the hints and tips she's picked up along the way. The morning starts with a floral demonstration, then you get stuck in with your own piece, with Jarvis on hand to guide you through it. It's a small group setting, limited to ten people, so you're not just one of a crowd.
Everything you need is provided on the day: the flowers, the seasonal accessories, the foliage and the decorative finishes. You just turn up and work with what's there. While you're at it, she serves hot chocolate and mince pies, so you can take a break and lean into the festive atmosphere. It's as much about the morning as it is about the centre piece you leave with.
