November & December 2026 ∙ If making your own beautiful Christmas wreath sounds like a rather lovely way to start the festive season, Darling Buds of KJ is bringing its Luxury Christmas Wreath Workshops to two gorgeous Warwickshire venues this year.

Taking place at Mallory Court Country House Hotel & Spa and Stoneleigh Abbey, the workshops combine creativity, beautiful seasonal foliage, expert guidance, fizz, festive treats, and some pretty special surroundings.

Led by Katie of Darling Buds of KJ, each workshop gives guests everything they need to create their own luxury Christmas wreath from scratch, with plenty of help and inspiration along the way. And there’s absolutely no need to be particularly crafty. Whether someone has made wreaths for years or wouldn’t know where to begin, the workshops are designed to be relaxed, friendly, and suitable for everyone.

∙ Christmas wreath making at Mallory Court ∙

Sunday 29 November 2026 ∙ 3pm–5.30pm ∙ £90 per person

The first of the two Darling Buds of KJ Christmas workshops takes place in the Knight Suite at Mallory Court Country House Hotel & Spa, near Leamington Spa. Guests will have a wide selection of Christmas foliage and decorations to choose from, before being guided through the process of turning it all into a beautiful wreath to take home.

There’s plenty of opportunity to make it personal too, whether the preferred Christmas style is traditional and wonderfully festive, natural and understated, or involves considerably more sparkle. Alongside the wreath making, guests can enjoy a glass of fizz, followed by a delicious cream tea, with tea and coffee also included.

It’s two and a half hours to get creative, learn something new, and enjoy the gorgeous surroundings of Mallory Court, while hopefully leaving feeling considerably more Christmassy than when you arrived.

Where: The Knight Suite, Mallory Court Country House Hotel & Spa, Harbury Lane, Leamington Spa, CV33 9QB
When: Sunday 29 November, 3pm–5.30pm
Price: £90 per person

∙ Christmas wreath making at Stoneleigh Abbey ∙

Sunday 6 December 2026 ∙ 2pm–4.30pm ∙ £85 per person

The following Sunday, Darling Buds of KJ heads to the beautiful Stoneleigh Abbey, near Kenilworth, for another afternoon of festive wreath making.

Taking place in the Orangery, the workshop will use a gorgeous selection of seasonal foliage, natural materials, and decorative touches, with guests guided through each stage of creating their wreath.

There will be lots of inspiration and advice available, while still leaving everyone free to create something that feels completely their own.

To make the afternoon even more festive, the ticket includes a glass of Prosecco, accompanied by cake and festive nibbles. Guests will also receive entry to the Stoneleigh Abbey grounds, so it’s worth arriving early and making a little more of the visit.

Where: The Orangery at Stoneleigh Abbey, Stoneleigh, Kenilworth, CV8 2LF
When: Sunday 6 December, 2pm–4.30pm
Price: £85 per person

∙ Get creative with Darling Buds of KJ ∙

The Christmas wreath workshops are part of the creative workshops offered by Darling Buds of KJ, bringing people together to learn, make something beautiful, and enjoy the process along the way.

These festive editions are about much more than simply going home with a wreath. They’re an opportunity to switch off for a couple of hours, get hands-on with beautiful natural materials, enjoy some fizz and festive food, and spend time in two of Warwickshire’s loveliest settings.

And, of course, there’s the satisfaction of heading home with a luxury Christmas wreath made entirely by you.
