Wreath Making 2026

Many of you know, I hold Christmas wreath workshops - my hobby and joyous pastime. I am always a little anxious to share as this is a hobby but my Mam would be telling me to share as it is one of life’s simplest and loveliest pleasures: immersing yourself in creativity with festive cheer.

So here I go…

Create your own unique wreath using the traditional moss ring method topped with foliage, evergreen, dried fruit, foraged cones and finish with ribbon from an array of ribbons from our ribbon reel.

Priced at ÂŁ55 per person
Make a wreath, enjoy a glass of Prosecco, tea and coffee, of course there will be some homemade cake too.

This is an informal and creative workshop. The workshops are held in our workshop in Shotley Bridge. Below I have shared possible times and dates. Workshops will be limited to 6 people but if you wish to book for 4 people I can make it a private workshop for you depending on availability. Other times may be available on request.

It’s the perfect opportunity to meet with friends and family or an alternative Christmas work meet-up. Tag your friend for a special creative mate date.

Please just send a message to book or for further information.

A new recipe on the counter today - Try one of our Black Forest Berry Crumble Bars. For me, crumble is the best desert (controversial or maybe not at this time of year) so this in a bar form is utter perfection!
