About our workshops (in no particular order).
Dried flower wreath.
The perfect wreath to brighten up the inside of your home. Join us to learn the basics of drying flowers, what to consider when choosing your flowers and foliage for drying and then with our guidance, weave a natural willow ring before adding dried flowers to create a pretty and delicate wreath.
Moss Art.
Using sustainably preserved moss to create a piece of art. You will be provided with a handmade frame and given different types of moss and preserved foliage to make your own design to take home and hang on your wall. The moss will last for months without water as long as it is away from direct sunlight and any heat sources (such as radiators), all it will need is a gentle dust every now and then.
Vase arrangement.
Why not join us to create a beautiful real flower arrangement in a glass vase. We'll chat about the principles of floristry, discussing how to get your flowers to last longer and what to consider when buying flowers, such as shape, texture and colour.
Together we will then create an arrangement in a vase, without using florists foam. Your lovely creation including the vase will then be yours to keep.
Dried flower cloche.
Drying flowers is the perfect way to capture each season and create beautiful, long lasting arrangements for your home.
We harvest and dry our own flowers and those of other amazing, local growers in the Cotswolds.

We'll then immerse ourselves in creating a hand-tied bouquet of beautiful British summer flowers. Combining billowing blooms with delicate, scented flowers and fresh foliage in a stunning design before wrapping your creation in a Bloomery gift bag and vase for you to take home and enjoy.
Spring wreath.
Combining a wreath with spring bulbs is the perfect way to start the year.
We’ll weave our own Willow ring to begin, add seasonal foliage and spring bulbs surrounded in moss to allow them to drink and bloom over time. What could be more lovely than watching the flowers grow and bloom on your own front door.
Summer wreath.
If you've never thought of putting a wreath on your door in Summertime, think again!
With the right combination of plants, your wreath can adorn your front door throughout the warm Summer months (and live inside during the winter).
We’ll use a lovely Willow wreath as the base and attach the plants and foliage to this in your own stunning design. I'll guide you on the best choice of materials to withstand the Summer heat including succulents and how to look after them.
Autumn wreath.
How beautiful is the autumn foliage, how would you like to capture this in a wreath to hang on your front door.
We’ll weave a simple Willow ring as the base and add stunning Autumn foliage in your own stunning design, we may even add some dried flowers for a further pop of Autumn colour.

Terrariums are low maintenance, self-sustaining ecosystems that make a lovely gift or a great new addition to your home or office.
