Astilbe & Rose Studio, Unit A1(6), Copley Mill, St Pauls Trading Estate, Stalybridge SK15 3DN
Join us for an afternoon of festive creativity at our Christmas wreath workshop, hosted in the Astilbe & Rose studio. With 30 spaces available, free on-site parking, and disability access (please note: no disability toilets), this is the perfect way to welcome the season in a warm and relaxed setting.
You’ll have everything you need to design your own wreath, including fresh greenery, festive accents, and a beautiful selection of dried flowers. We’ll be there to guide you throughout, so no experience is necessary. With seasonal music playing and festive nibbles and drinks provided, you’ll leave with a handcrafted wreath full of Christmas charm.
Tickets are £58 per person and include all materials, tools, and refreshments. Each ticket guarantees a place at the workbench, spaces are limited so early booking is recommended.
FAQs - Our studio workshops
How long will my wreath last?
Your wreath will last around 4–5 weeks and will easily see you through the Christmas period. Many customers keep theirs in the garden and enjoy them well into March.
Do I need experience?
Not at all. We’ll show you everything you need to know and be on hand to help throughout.
Can I come on my own?
Absolutely. Many people do and you’ll be warmly welcomed.
What if I can’t attend?
Refunds can be offered with 7 days’ notice. Please email us at flowers@astilbeandrose.co.uk
When your flowers arrive
- Gently remove from packaging.
- Give the stems a little wiggle in the vase to loosen them.
- Use your fingers to fluff pampas, or a hair dryer on a low/warm setting held 30–50cm away.
Everyday care
- Keep in a dry area - no water needed.
- Handle gently, stems are delicate.
- Dried flowers and pampas last up to 3+ years; colours may fade over time.
- Light shedding is natural.
- Dust with a hair dryer or fan on a low/cool setting, 30–50cm away.
- Do not use hairspray as it changes the texture.
Safety
- Keep away from flames and heat (highly flammable).
- Do not digest; keep away from children and pets.
- Some stems may be dyed or treated.
- If using near food, follow hygiene guidelines.
Extra Large Pampas Tip
- XL pampas may look flat after transit. Use a hair dryer on a low/warm setting and blowing down the stem. Ideally do this outside to restore fluff.
