Description

Enjoy a magical time of festive cheer whilst learning about the history of wreath making and the skills of creating your own 14-inch festive wreath.

In this exclusive class you’ll learn how to decorate your wreath, including foliaging, wiring and making a beautiful triple bow. You will use a combination of fresh plant materials sourced from the zoo site and local areas. This will include a mixture of seasonal materials such as foliage, moss, holly, leaves, apple and orange slices, cinnamon infused sticks, and pinecones. The final touch of lace ribbons can be added, which are biodegradable. You can also bring along your own holiday decorations if you wish to match your décor! At the end of the workshop, you will finish off the experience with a scrumptious festive afternoon tea.

All materials and tools will be provided. But if you have your own wire cutters and secateurs, you can bring them with you!

They want to ensure these workshops are run with sustainability in mind, so all materials are either compostable or recyclable.

Afternoon tea served at 12.30pm*

Price: £45 per person**

Suitability: This workshop is suitable for ages 12+. Children must be accompanied by a paying adult.

Be quick! Spaces are limited. Early booking recommended. To book contact bookings@belfastzoo.co.uk or call 028 9077 6277.

*Afternoon tea will include a hot drink (tea, coffee, hot chocolate, or non-alcoholic mulled wine) with triangle sandwiches, scone with jam and cream, and two mini traybakes.
