Welcome to The Flower Box Saltford
Hello! I’m Ali, the proud owner of The Flower Box Saltford, based in Saltford near Bath and Bristol. Floristry came into my life by happy accident, when I attended my first wreath workshop in 2018. From that moment, I was hooked! During Covid, my passion blossomed into a full-time business, covering everything from fresh and dried flowers to workshops, events, weddings, and more.
At The Flower Box, my philosophy is simple: I’m only happy if you’re happy! This core value guides everything I do. Whether you’re commissioning flowers for a wedding, hiring me for commercial planting, or joining a flower arranging workshop, your satisfaction is at the heart of my work. I love creating pieces that reflect your personality and spark joy in your space.
I also believe everyone has a creative side, and my workshops are designed to help you explore that creativity in a fun and supportive environment. From the moment you walk in, you’ll feel welcome, relaxed, and inspired. Join me and discover the joy of making something uniquely yours!
About the Christmas Flower Arranging Workshop
This festive season, step into the world of seasonal creativity with my Christmas Wreath Workshops at The Flower Box Saltford. Each workshop starts with a warm welcome – a drink and a mince pie to get you in the festive mood. You’ll then be guided step by step to create your very own unique wreath, perfect for your door, table, or as a gift for someone special.
The workshops are designed for everyone, whether you’re attending alone or bringing friends. Over 2.5 to 3 hours, depending on your pace, you’ll work with a selection of seasonal foliage, pine cones, cinnamon sticks, dried fruit slices, ribbons, and other festive decorations. Everything is provided, but you’re welcome to bring your own personal touches, like baubles or ornaments, to make your wreath truly one-of-a-kind.
I take pride in creating a friendly and relaxed environment where creativity can flourish.
There’s no pressure, just plenty of festive cheer, guidance, and encouragement. Big smiles and big wreaths are always welcome here! You’ll leave not only with a beautiful wreath but also with memories of a joyful, creative experience.
Why Join a Christmas Wreath Workshop?
Joining a Christmas Flower Arranging Workshop is about more than just making a wreath – it’s an opportunity to relax, get creative, and start the festive season with a sense of accomplishment. Crafting a wreath allows you to slow down, focus on your hands and imagination, and enjoy a mindful creative experience.
It’s also a wonderful way to connect with friends, family, or even fellow flower enthusiasts. Workshops like these foster camaraderie and festive spirit, offering a break from the hustle and bustle of the season. You’ll share tips, ideas, and plenty of laughter, all while crafting something beautiful to display in your home.
Finally, your wreath will be a reflection of you. Unlike store-bought decorations, your creation will have personality, charm, and warmth. Imagine the pride of hanging your own handmade wreath on your door, or gifting it as a personalised, heartfelt present. This is truly a unique festive experience you won’t forget.
What You’ll Learn and Create
During the workshop, I guide you through every stage of wreath making, from shaping the base to adding layers of foliage, decorative elements, and finishing touches. Even if it’s your first time handling flowers, you’ll leave with a beautiful, professional-looking wreath.
We focus on seasonal and sustainable materials. You’ll learn tips and tricks for arranging both fresh and dried flowers, including elements like pine cones, cinnamon sticks, and dried fruit. For inspiration on using dried flowers in your festive decorations, check out these creative ideas from Good Housekeeping and Country Living’s guide.
By the end of the workshop, not only will you have a wreath to cherish, but you’ll also gain valuable floral arranging skills. You’ll be able to replicate what you’ve learned at home for future occasions, making your festive décor truly personal and memorable.
