Please note: this event will be held in person at Glasgow Zine Library.
Come and join us for an afternoon of wreath making in early December. You’ll be shown how to make a traditional moss-based wreath, using a selection of fresh, seasonal foliage and materials. No previous experience is needed and I’ll be on hand to make sure everyone leaves with a beautiful, unique wreath.
Please feel free to bring along any meaningful decorations or materials you have foraged yourself. I can show you the appropriate way to attach it to your wreath so it feels extra special. I’ll also discuss the ways to keep it looking fresh throughout the festive period.
Please note: we will be using sharp secateurs
