Christmas wreaths are a lovely way to showcase the natural resources of the festive season as well as your creative flare &#8211; but whether it’s the chance to get artsy and crafty, the unmissable Instagram boasting opportunities or the free mulled wine while you beaver away with twigs and foliage, these wreath-making workshops sell out like hot mince pies.
As such, there’s loads of workshops springing up in the weeks ahead – if we’ve missed any good ones that still have availability, just let us know in the comments box below and we’ll add them to the list.
