We’re delighted that Ali from Meadow Heaven is returning to share a beautiful Summer Wreath with us. It will be a relaxed evening with a complimentary glass of fizz or non-alcoholic options to help relax and enjoy your evening. Grab your bestie, Mum or just escape for a sole evening, we’ll be creating a beautiful half moon wreath using a natural hay base. Ali will start with a short introduction and demonstration on how to shape your design, focusing on a crescent layout. You'll combine a mix of fresh and dried materials—think seasonal foliage, flowers, seed pods, and meadow grasses—to build texture and contrast. Step by step, you’ll layer and secure each element with wire, creating a balanced and eye-catching composition. By the end, you’ll have a unique, handcrafted wreath perfect for bringing a touch of nature into your space. Suitable for indoor or outdoor display. For those of you who don’t know Ali’s work, here is a link to her Facebook page. Thank you, see you in the studio 😊🌸 https://www.facebook.com/MeadowHeavenFlowers Date: Friday 18th July Time: 7pm - 9pm Price: £42
