Each year I host two different types of Christmas wreath workshop where you are welcome to my home in Harleston near Diss for an afternoon of creative fun.
I offer both a traditional and a luxury workshop, both are all natural and biodegradable. your be surprised at how long the luxury wreath will last as it used dried flowers from the meadow although the foliage is fresh and will also turn beautifully silver grey over time, mine is decorating my kitchen wall 3 years later as a country ring and still doesn’t look like it has seen its end. Many who have come along to the workshop have left their wreaths on their doors till summer before taking them down and putting them up somewhere else to decorate.
Workshop dates will be advertised and posted on social media and full payment for the event will need paid in advance and unfortunately no refunds but movement to other available dates can be made if space is available, or used on another event within 6 months.
With Christmas coming and if your looking for a wreath that is just that little bit more creative and special than the normal holly and fir wraps and a little something different to give your Christmas welcome a bit more stand out from everyone else on the street with a touch of luxury then this workshop is for you!
Just back from a wreath making afternoon – what an awesome experience – so much to choose from. A very informal but informative session where we all came away with a beautiful wreath even though most of us had never done anything like this before

You will have access to a large selection of foliage, berries, feathers and interesting dried flowers and seed heads from the meadow.
We will be learning to make a wreath from start to finish, creating a base and then covering in moss followed by adorning the base with a mixture of beautiful fresh and dried material.
All materials are provided for you so all you need to worry about is turning up and having some creative fun. To get you in the Christmas spirit, snacks and drinks are provided as the session can take 3 hours depending on how much work and effort you want to put into your masterpiece.
I had an amazing time with Helen on Saturday at one of her Christmas wreath making workshops. Helen is a fantastic host, a great teacher & it was a real pleasure to meet some other lovely ladies. I came home with new skills & a beautiful wreath for my door. I give Helen 6 stars but the review bar doesn’t allow it!…I will definitely be seeing Helen & her family again this time next year

I really enjoyed the wreath making workshop on Sunday, great fun and really clear instructions from Helen. The homegrown flowers are beautiful so you can’t fail to make something lovely. I have received so many compliments on my wreath.
