Join The Lilac Tree for a creative and relaxing Pressed Flower Art Workshop at the picturesque Wightwick Manor and Gardens.
- Booking essential
Led by Justine from The Lilac Tree, these workshops require no prior experience—just an enthusiasm for creativity and a love for nature. Whether you prefer a short session or a full day of crafting, there is an option to suit everyone. Morning session (10:30am – 12:30pm): In this session, you will design and assemble a unique pressed flower artwork, which will be framed and ready to display in your home or give as a gift. All materials, including a high-quality frame, are provided. £35 per person.
Afternoon session (1pm-2:30pm): This session focuses on creating a pressed flower ceramic trinket bowl, incorporating dried flowers into a delicate and functional piece of art. All materials are included. £25 per person.
Full Day Experience: For those who want to immerse themselves in both forms of pressed flower art, a full-day experience is available, which includes both the morning and afternoon sessions at a discounted rate of £55 per person. All materials and frame are included in the workshops price, as is your entrance fee to Wightwick.
These workshops provide a wonderful opportunity to slow down, enjoy a mindful and creative activity, and take home a handcrafted piece of art. Booking essential via Justine at The Lilac Tree. Please email Justine@jandsprojects.co.uk or call her to book on 07834 315818. Please note that the workshop is located in an upstairs room of an historic building, accessible only via a staircase.
