Christmas Wreath Workshop Melbourne: Make Your Own Fresh Wreath in Cheltenham

Every November our Cheltenham studio fills with the smell of pine and eucalyptus. Our Christmas wreath workshops are back for 2026, and this is everything you need to know before you book.

What you'll make

You'll build a full, fragrant fresh-foliage wreath for your front door on a 35 cm base. We start with fresh pine, eucalyptus and seasonal Australian natives from the Melbourne flower market, then layer in berries, dried accents and your choice of velvet ribbon. Every wreath comes out different, and every one comes out beautiful.

Like everything we make, it's foam-free. Your wreath is built on wire and natural materials, so it can go in the green bin when Christmas is over.

2026 Christmas wreath workshop dates

  • Saturday 21 November, 10am to 12pm
  • Saturday 28 November, 2pm to 4pm

What's included

  • A 35 cm wreath base, fresh pine, eucalyptus and seasonal natives, berries, dried accents, wire and velvet ribbon
  • Step-by-step guidance from our florists
  • A glass of bubbles, mince pies and festive nibbles
  • A take-home care card so your wreath lasts through Christmas

You don't need any experience. Beginners are welcome, and the workshop suits ages 14 and up.

How to make a fresh wreath last until Christmas

A fresh-foliage wreath made in late November will easily see you through to Christmas Day with a little care:

  • Keep it out of direct sun. A front door under a porch or veranda is ideal. Hot afternoon sun dries foliage out fastest.
  • Mist it every few days. A light spray of water on the front and back keeps pine and eucalyptus supple.
  • Hang it outside, not inside. Heating and air-conditioning dry foliage quickly, so wreaths last longest outdoors.
  • Let it dry gracefully. Eucalyptus and many natives dry beautifully, so by January your wreath will still look good.

Bringing a group?

A wreath workshop makes an easy Christmas get-together for friends, a team break-up or a family morning. For groups of 6 or more we can run a private wreath session in our studio or at your venue. See our private group and team building workshops or call us on (03) 5985 7040.
