Christmas wreath workshops Cardiff 2024


It’s time! (please read that with Mariah Carey’s voice in mind) Christmas is again just around the corner.

If you are looking for fun and Christmassy things to do throughout the festive period then look no further!

My Christmas wreath workshops are a timeless tradition that bring joy and creativity to the fore. The days of purchasing a wreath from a shop are gone! Invest in yourself, enjoy a couple of festive hours and give your decorations a more personal touch.

ABOUT THE CLASS

These Christmas wreath workshops offer a unique opportunity to learn the art of wreath making while bonding with family and friends or even strangers! They are guaranteed to get you into the festive spirit. Stepping into one of the wreath workshops is like stepping into Christmas.

The workshops are led by me, Anne-Marie. I will help you every step of the way from selecting the correct foliage to showing you how to wire your wreath. You will be amazed by what you create and will leave with the perfect seasonal wreath that you'll be proud to hang on your door; one that reflects your unique style!

No craft or creative experience is needed with beginners and first timers very welcome.

Why not indulge in a couple of creative hours. Sing along to some Christmas tunes, smelling the mulled wine heating in the kitchen and nibble on the mince pies.

WHAT DO OTHERS SAY ABOUT THE CLASS?

I can’t quite believe it but I have been running these classes for thirteen years! Many of my fellow wreath makers have been coming to my Christmas wreath workshops for years, even when I ran them from my kitchen table many moons ago. Is there a greater compliment than a loyal, returning customer?


This is a review I received from By Jo wedding stationery

I love coming to Anne-Marie’s wreath classes, so much so that I think this will be my 5th year in a row! Even managed in 2020 - outside and socially distanced :-)

It’s such a lovely, creative way to get into the festive spirit. I usually come along with a friend, or my Mum, or both! A peaceful couple of hours chatting, drinking mulled wine or a cuppa, Buble & Mariah in the background, making something gorgeous to bring Christmas to my front door.

Anne-Marie is the best teacher, very patient (essential when you’re a perfectionist like me!!). There is always a great intro from her into each step of the making, then she’s around everyone with help and tips as you need them.

I really appreciate having a local workshop to go to, and that I can make my own wreath in a traditional, sustainable way. No plastic or floral foam, just moss, wire and locally foraged greenery. I have been known to reuse a bauble or two from previous years too!

Looking forward to this year.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How long does the class last? It usually takes around 2 hours, perhaps a little longer.

Do I need previous experience? Not at all. I give step by step instructions at each stage of the class and give guidance throughout.

Do I need to be artistic? No. You will be amazed by what you create, everyone always is.

Do I need to bring anything? You will be provided with everything you need to make your own wreath. But if you want something in particular then feel to bring it along. For example if you want a wreath full of red berries then you will need to bring them with you.

How long will the wreath last? The wreath will last well into Christmas and the New Year. Some of my students have dried out their wreaths and kept them for years!

What if I struggle to make the wreath? I will help you. I have never had a student not able to make a wreath and be happy with their creation.


The cost is £49.50.
