Make a Christmas wreath using natural vine wreath base which can be reused, collected sprigs of pine, fir holly and other greenery and traditional aromatic Christmas dried orange and cinnamon.
Add a few reusable artificial berries and ribbons.

Led by Deb Slade, Community Arts Worker. Deb rally enjoys gathering the greenery, drying orange slices etc at the start of the Christmas month.


You are welcome to bring some of your own greenery – Deb will bring plenty of holly for everyone, so look out for the more unusual, blue greens and lime greens for contrast. If any one has any eucalyptus, bring loads!

The workshop is free, but spaces are very limited and booking is essential! To book, e-mail caldmoregarden@gmail.com or message / whatsapp Anna on 07871813252.

The workshop is funded by The National Lottery Community Fund.

WILLOW WORKSHOPS
WITH ARTIST KATE MORRELL

Learn to sculpt your own small willow animal at Caldmore Community Garden and get involved in making some bigger sculptures for everyone to admire! Kate will show us the techniques she uses to make the sculpture from start to finish – feel free to bring along any pictures to work from to make your own piece.

Come and join us for a fun and relaxed willow weaving as a part of our creative Women’s Tuesdays group. We can work indoors or outdoors (weather permitting).

Kate Morrell is an experienced willow artist based in Leicestershire. She set up her workshops 4 years ago and has met some wonderful people who have sculpted the most fantastic sculptures.
