Create your own full, traditional Christmas door wreath in the beautiful surroundings of Hoghton Tower. Includes a mince pie and mulled wine

Join Carys Ainsworth Floristry at historic Hoghton Tower for a festive evening of Christmas wreath making.

During this relaxed, beginner-friendly workshop, Carys will guide you step by step through creating your own full 12-inch Christmas door wreath using seasonal greenery and traditional festive decorations.

The emphasis will be on creating a generous, plush wreath that you’ll be proud to take home and hang on your door.

Once your wreath has been greened, you’ll be able to personalise it using a decoration bar filled with a variety of festive materials. Choices may include dried oranges, cinnamon, pine cones, lotus heads, berries, baubles and ribbons, allowing every finished wreath to have its own individual character.

No previous floristry experience is needed and Carys will be on hand throughout the workshop to demonstrate techniques and provide individual guidance.

12-inch wreath base

Fresh seasonal greenery

All wreath-making materials and floristry sundries

Access to the festive decoration bar

A choice of ribbon and finishing details

Step-by-step professional floristry tuition

Your completed Christmas wreath to take home
