Welcome The Maker

Welcome The Maker: creative workshops

Looking to get creative, have fun and make something you’re so proud of, you won’t believe you’ve learned to create it in a single workshop?


My workshops typically combine art and nature, from seaweed printing, to willow weaving, wreath making, flower crowns and other floristry.

  • Regular workshops in Bridport & West Bay
  • Hen dos and private events
  • Corporate/ Team building sessions
  • Kids classes
  • Gift vouchers

Learn to weave your own willow wreath frame & decorate with gorgeous seasonal foliage.

Christmas Wreath workshop dates coming soon.

Earlier this year (2026) I ran three Spring wreath making classes, some for adults only, as well as a class for parents and children to come and create together. Everyone produced a gorgeous wreath. It was wonderful to see adults and children alike enjoying working with the lovely seasonal materials. All of which were responsibly and locally soured, either grown in my back garden here in Bridport, or from my family’s orchard in Somerset.

“The wreath I made at your workshop is hung on my door and I love seeing it every time I come home…I will definitely be looking out for your Christmas Wreath workshop” – Mary Duane (Spring wreath class 2026)

Forage for beautiful local seaweeds on West Bay Beach & create your own prints using cyanotype: a process that uses sunlight to create gorgeous deep blue photographic prints.

Enjoy a fun morning out, learn about local seaweeds and use some of your foraged specimens to produce some beautiful prints.

Join my upcoming workshop on the 20th June…

My team and I had a fabulous time running a “have-a-go” flower crown stall at the Allington Hill Country Fair this year. It was so rewarding to see everyone enjoying the craft and proudly donning their crowns throughout the fair. I hope to run some more flower crown workshops next year. Watch this space for updates.

Planning an event and need something a little different to what’s listed here? Get in touch.

A workshop is a great way to make your event stand out, get people mixing and having a laugh together.

Perhaps you’re planning a hen do for a bride who wants to learn some wedding floristry with her flowers and colours of choice, or planning an office party and need a craft that reflects your team’s particular interests? I’m always keen to develop new experiences that empower people to have fun and be creative. Don’t hesitate to get in touch for a friendly (no commitment required) chat about what might be possible for your event.
