Enjoy a happy day of foraging with Zanna Hoskins from SPINDLE. On this single day course you will use freshly cut and locally sourced flowers to make table centre arrangements for a special event. You will also enjoy a foraging walk to gather additional wild flowers and foliage from around our woodland & hedgerows.

​

The walk will be followed by a demonstration in the workshop, of how to make a variety of table centre arrangements – including a hanging arrangement – for a special event using your own favourite vase. You will use fully biodegradable natural materials (maybe a bit of fishing line) moss & string, after which you'll be able to get on with it and get creative, making the most of scent, colour, texture & form. At the end of the day you'll go home with something beautiful, natural, creative, and totally unique to you.

It is the subtlety of the seed heads, tiny flowers and colours of the British flora at different times of year that inspire the end result...
