About this Event

Christmas Table Flowers Workshop in Red & Gold at Gibside Stables
Monday 22nd December, 11am

💥 Gibside Stables is approximately a 20-minute walk from the reception building and includes mixed terrain and a steep-incline, so we’d recommend arriving onsite at least 30 minutes before the workshop begins and wearing sturdy footwear.

Want to impress your guests without burning the roast potatoes?
Join us at Gibside to create a festive table centrepiece that will be the star of your Christmas dinner.
Using our eco-friendly chicken wire and water technique, you’ll arrange seasonal foliage, red flowers, and gold decorations for rich, classic Christmas warmth, in a long, low container – perfect for the middle of your table.

Our workshops at The Northern Flower Garden are always fun and supportive where I demonstrate professional floristry techniques, share the tips and tricks and we’ll keep the creativity flowing with crafted drinks and homemade bakes from the National Trust team.

⏰ Duration: up to 2 hours.

Spaces are limited, so don’t miss out—reserve your place today and make it an experience to remember!
