Festive wreath-making workshop with Donna of Cerus Botanical Designs in Thrift Wood, with £5 of each booking donated to the local charity MK:Act.
Donna of Cerus Botanical Designs is running a Christmas wreath-making workshop at Thrift Wood in Whaddon on Wednesday 2 December, from 10:30 am to 12:30 pm. If that date doesn't work, there's a second session on Wednesday 9 December. It's a two-hour morning, so you're in and out well before the school run or the afternoon rush.
The setting is part of the draw: Donna hosts the workshop in her Christmas studio deep in the woods of Thrift Wood, on Buckingham Road (MK17 0EQ). The idea is to spend a couple of hours soaking up the woodland calm, eating mince pies and drinking hot chocolate while you learn to put together your own floral door wreath. It's a small-group session—no more than ten people—and all the materials are provided, so you just need to turn up. You'll walk away with a wreath you've made yourself, ready for your front door.
There's a local cause behind it, too. The workshop is run in partnership with MK:Act, a Milton Keynes charity, and £5 from every booking fee goes to them. It's a straightforward way to do something for yourself that also does something for the community.
