Spring Fabric Wreath Workshop.
Get ready for some fabric fun on Tuesday 7 April when we will be joined by The Makers Bee for Spring wreath making – book your spot online before it sells out.

Choose from a morning or afternoon two-hour workshop and come away with a beautiful artwork to decorate your home. Tickets £35 per family £35. You’ll need to book your place on this workshop.
