I’m so glad you found me! I run wreath making workshops for teams & businesses looking for a fun festive activity before the Christmas break. In the last few years, I’ve run workshops for Snapchat, Google, Three, KPMG and lots more. You have have a look below for some testimonials and see what they thought.
Wreath making is a fantastic activity for your team as by making something with their hands that they may not have made before allows them to switch off a little bit and enjoy being in the moment. The feedback I always get is how nice it was for participants to put down their technology and just start making, with nature. And the best bit? They get a beautiful wreath that will hang on their door all season and bring them and everyone who visits, a dose of seasonal joy.
So how does it work?
I’m really flexible with this – if you have a lovely big meeting room (that you don’t mind getting a little messy!) I can bring everything to you. If you’d prefer to get out of the office, you’re very welcome to come to my studio in Paintworks, Bristol – I can host about 20 people. If your team is remote (or you have remote workers you’d like to get involved) I can send out wreath making kits so they have everything they need to make at home! I can run live workshops where I make along with everyone, over Zoom/Teams or I have a pre-recorded video to take them through it step-by-step. I’m always happy to work with you to make it easier for you and the team.
What does it cost?
Prices start from ÂŁ55 per person, depending on where you’d like to host the workshops, how many live videos or sessions you like, it’s entirely flexible.
Can anyone do it?
That’s the beauty of wreath making, I can teach everything you need to know to create a gorgeous wreath. Even the most grumpy and seemingly unwilling colleagues can create something beautiful and often surprise themselves at how much they enjoyed and needed it. It’s not too complex so can be enjoyed with a glass of wine and I’m always on hand to repeat or help with any tricky bits.
Great, what’s next?
Just drop me an email! As December is the most popular month for wreath making, my dates book up fast! So please do reach out as soon as you know you might want to work with me so I can get your date booked in. My email is hello@femmepetale.com or you can drop me a message on Instagram @femme_petale

“We contracted Gemma to run corporate, online wreath making sessions for the team at Snapchat. The whole process from beginning to end was really easeful and pleasant. Gemma has an exceptional eye for detail; from the quality of materials chosen to the packaging and the delivery. She was a joy to work with and adapted to our facilitation style, making it fun and didactic. The feedback from the teams was overwhelmingly positive and I couldn’t recommend working with her more.” – Nele, Snapchat
“Gemma organised an online Christmas wreath making experience for the the company I work for, and it was awesome! She took the time to tailor us an order and all the materials were delivered on time to various staff addresses and were very well packaged. The foliage and decoration materials were really lovely, and extra wee touches of birds, oranges and cinnamon sticks made the final wreaths extra special. Her video was super easy (and fun) to follow along, and we all loved the final results of our Christmas wreaths! Even though it was an online course, it was very easy to follow and everyone afterwards commented to me on how much they loved it! – Sarah, Mettle Studios
