Adults-only workshop with a demonstration by Wild Thoughts Floristry on sustainable wreath-making with fresh foliage and seasonal decorations.
Wild Thoughts Floristry are running a Christmas wreath workshop at Lydiard Park Hotel on Wednesday 2 December, from 18:30 to 20:30. It's a two-hour session where you make your own wreath from scratch, so you'll leave with something for your own door rather than just a few tips on how to do it later.
The evening starts with a demonstration of sustainable wreath-making using a natural moss base. Once that's sorted, you get to be creative with a wide selection of fresh foliage and seasonal decorations: eucalyptus, berries and pine cones, alongside dried flowers, fruits and ribbons. The idea is that you pick and choose what you like, so you end up with a wreath that's uniquely your own rather than a carbon copy of everyone else's. It's a relaxed night, too, with Christmas music playing in the background while you work.
It's for adults (18+) and is listed as accessible. You're encouraged to bring an apron, a good pair of secateurs if you have them, a large bag to carry the finished wreath home, and gloves. If you don't have secateurs, they're provided on the night, so you don't need to worry if you're not usually the type to keep a gardening kit to hand.
