Includes all materials, refreshments, and house and garden entry on the day of the workshop.
A half day workshop where you'll create unique folded paper Christmas decorations for your Christmas tree. Guided by an established local paper artist Kim Bevan, you'll learn the art of paper folding to craft festive ornaments inspired by Christmas at Chatsworth.

This workshop is suitable for most abilities, but does require manual dexterity.
