Celebrate the season with us at our Festive Wishing Wreath Workshop, led by renowned artist and spiritual guide Eugenia Rosa, on Saturday 7th December from 4-6 PM at the Art & Spirituality Centre in Edinburgh. Eugenia brings a rich background in both art, ritual, and folk traditions to infuse her workshops with meaning and magic. With her gentle guidance, you’ll create your own unique wreath using natural greenery, colourful decorations, and personal touches that reflect your hopes for the coming season. Why make a wreath? In Celtic tradition, wreaths symbolise the cycle of life, honouring nature’s eternal rhythms as we embrace winter’s darker days and welcome the returning light. Crafted with intention, a wreath can act as a circle of protection, warmth, and blessing for the home, making it a perfect seasonal ritual. What to Expect: Create a Unique Festive Décor Piece: With a range of natural materials provided, you’ll have the chance to design a truly one-of-a-kind wreath that captures your spirit and seasonal intentions. Relaxing and Fun: Take time out from the holiday hustle to immerse yourself in a cosy, creative environment with like-minded community members. Personal & Symbolic Touches: Bring along any personal items, such as small trinkets, ribbons, or symbols, to weave into your wreath, making it even more meaningful. Eugenia will share tips on selecting symbolic materials, the history of wreath-making, and how you can incorporate personal intentions to bring good fortune, warmth, and peace into your home.
