About the event
Join us at the Blue Hill Flora farm for a fun filled few hours making Christmas Wreaths and a beautiful refillable candle with your own bespoke fragrance.
In our classroom first Ellen will we will guide you through creating your candle and while the wax sets I will then teach you how to make your own unique beautiful wreath!
Head to https://www.cefnforcandlecompany.com/ for more information on Ellens beautiful candles and the amazing ethos and story behind her business. I'm so excited to be doing this collaboration with her and bringing you a truly unique experience to get you in the festive spirit.
You will start with a willow ring as your base, made by hand from 6 willow varieties grown on the farm. This is layered with locally grown moss to ensure your foliage will last throughout the Christmas Season.
Foliage is then added on top in bunches. You can mix and match as you wish from our variety of foliage: pine sprigs, conifer, yew leaves, holly leaves, ivy etc. Pinecones, dried flowers and holly berries are the final touches and added last. If you wish to add coloured baubles or fairy light please bring them with you and I can show you how to incorporate them.
You can do a full or half wreath as you wish.
There will be festive tunes, non alcoholic mulled wine and mince pies as well.
You will each get a Wreath Care Card to take home, to help you get the most out of your wreath. Apart from the ribbon every wreath is 100% compostable.
There will also be mulled wine and mince pies provided so please let us know of any dietary requirements via email.
