Festive Wreath Making

The Verulam is hosting a festive wreath-making workshop on Wednesday 9 December, led by Kelly from Poppy and Peony Florist. It's one of two dates she's running that month, with the first on Wednesday 2 December at 7pm, so you've got a choice of mid-week evenings to get your Christmas greenery sorted.

Kelly will be guiding you through the whole process, from the first few stems to the finished wreath, so you'll leave with something you've actually made yourself rather than just bought from a shop. It's a hands-on session, and since it's led by a professional florist, you'll pick up a few tips on how to work with the materials while you go. The whole thing is set in The Verulam, at 41 Lower Dagnall Street in St Albans, AL3 4QE.

There's a glass of Prosecco included in the price, which is a nice touch for a mid-week evening. It turns the workshop into something of a social thing, so it works as well for a night out with friends as it does if you're coming on your own and fancy meeting a few new people over some greenery and a drink.

Tickets are £65, and the session on the 9th starts at 6.30pm. If that doesn't suit, the earlier date on Wednesday 2 December kicks off at 7pm.
