We all know how it goes. The ‘ber months roll around and suddenly it’s a mad dash for paper, ribbon, bows and something — anything — that makes the gifts look halfway decent.
But instead of repeating the same last-minute scramble next Christmas, imagine this: a cosy afternoon or evening well before December, learning how to wrap confidently, beautifully and without stress — skills you’ll use year after year.
That’s exactly why booking an in-person giftwrapping workshop is such a smart (and genuinely enjoyable) way to prepare for Christmas — and why so many people wish they’d done it sooner.

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 really helps 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 my workshops, you’ll get to:
Experiment with eco-friendly materials
Share inspiration with other friendly attendees.
Enjoy a creative atmosphere with plenty of ideas and laughter.
3. Get ahead (and stress less)
A workshop gives you a head start on festive prep:
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 is uplifting. There’s laughter, creativity, and that “this looks amazing!” moment when you finish your first beautifully wrapped parcel.

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 a workshop will serve you for Christmas and every occasion beyond.

Book Your 2026–27 Workshop Now
Planning ahead for next year? I’m now taking bookings for group giftwrapping workshops in 2026–27.
If you’re part of a WI, PTA, community group, or workplace team, a bespoke workshop is a relaxed, creative way to bring people together — and it works brilliantly as a fundraiser too.
Autumn dates are always the first to fill, so if your group has a preferred time of year, it’s well worth getting in touch early to secure your spot. I’m happy to chat through ideas and tailor the workshop to suit your group.
