Our skilled team will guide you through the process of crafting your own unique traditional Christmas door wreath, using an array of seasonal foliage and decorative accents. This relaxed workshop is perfect for getting into the Christmas spirit and can be enjoyed by all skill levels and abilities, but requires manual dexterity.
