We're in the 'ber months now and before you know it we’ll be scrambling for the paper, ribbon, bows, and creative finishing touches!
But instead of approaching wrapping in a rush this year, imagine spending a cosy evening learning how to make every gift you give look gorgeous?
Here’s why coming along to an in-person workshop with me is one of the most enjoyable (and useful!) ways to get ready for Christmas.

1. Hands-on learning = instant confidence
Watching tutorials can only take you so far — there’s something magical about learning in person.
In a live workshop:
You’ll try techniques straight away, with me right there to guide you.
You can ask questions as they come up and get personal feedback.
You’ll see others’ creative ideas and pick up clever shortcuts and inspiration.
That kind of confidence boost is gold when December rolls around and you’ve got a stack of presents to wrap!
2. Creativity + community = festive fun
Giftwrapping with me isn’t just about neat corners — it’s about creativity, sustainability, and joy.
At the workshop, you’ll get to:
Experiment with eco-friendly materials
Share inspiration with other friendly attendees.
Soak up a festive atmosphere with plenty of ideas and laughter.\
It’s amazing how quickly a wrapping table turns into a mini Christmas party!
3. Get ahead (and stress less)
By November, the festive season starts to pick up pace. A workshop gives you a head start:
You’ll master your wrapping techniques early.
You might even get a few gifts beautifully wrapped and ready to go ahead of time
You’ll glide into December feeling calm, creative and prepared.

4. It’s genuinely fun
Learning something hands-on with a group of like-minded people is uplifting. There’s laughter, creativity, and that “this looks amazing!” moment when you finish your first beautifully wrapped parcel. It’s an experience that puts you in the festive spirit.

5. The skills last all season
Whether you’re wrapping for friends, family or your small business, presentation matters. Beautiful wrapping makes your gifts stand out and adds that extra touch of care that people remember.
The techniques you learn at the workshop will serve you for Christmas and every occasion beyond.
