Join florist Ashley from Ash Tree Floral Designs for a festive wreath-making workshop inspired by the beautiful gardens and historic surroundings of Blakesley Hall.

Your experience will begin with a short seasonal foraging walk around the grounds, where you'll gather natural materials and discover some of the foliage, textures and details that can be used to create a beautiful winter wreath. Back inside, Ashley will guide you step-by-step through creating your own generous, natural-style Christmas wreath using fresh seasonal foliage, gathered materials, and festive details. You'll also enjoy a complimentary hot drink as part of your festive experience.

No previous floristry experience is needed, so whether you're a complete beginner or simply looking for a creative way to celebrate the season, you’ll have everything you need to make a wreath to take home and enjoy.

The experience also includes a tour of Blakesley Hall, making it a lovely festive experience filled with creativity, history and a little bit of Christmas magic!
