Festive Wreathmaking Workshops 11th, 12th and 13th December 2019

11 December 2019 -13 December 2019

Debbie Coplans is one of Herefordshire’s most innovative and talented florists. She creates beautiful floral themes for weddings, private parties and functions all over the country. She will demonstrate how to create a festive wreath for a door or table, or perhaps a garland for a mantelpiece or bannisters. Using fresh foliage, berries, cones and fresh winter flowers, Debbie will guide you through the process so you have something beautiful to take home. Always fun, the workshop and festive lunch is especially enjoyable to do with a group of friends.

Workshop: £60 includes all materials, two-course festive lunch and coffees

Time: 10.30am until 3.30pm
