Wire Seedhead Collection Workshop

Ever wished your favourite garden shapes could last forever? Join us for a fun, relaxed morning of "drawing with wire." Under the friendly guidance of tutor Anne Solomon, you’ll learn how to twist and weave simple wire into elegant, 3D botanical sculptures. Inspired by the delicate shapes of poppy seedheads, wild berries, and wispy grasses, you’ll craft stems standing an impressive 60–70cm tall. They look absolutely stunning in a vase and—best of all—they never wilt! Whether you’re a total beginner or a seasoned maker, you’ll pick up new skills with various wire weights and specialist tools. We’ll show you the techniques, but the "botanical flair" is all yours. What’s included: Full Kit: All tools and materials are provided. Refreshments: Tea, coffee and delicious cake while you create. Details: Suitability: Designed for ages 18+ (please inquire for younger crafters). Skill Level: Beginners and seasoned crafters are all welcome! Nimble fingers are helpful with the fine wire. Note: This workshop involves close-up work so good dexterity and eyesight are recommended. Date: Sat 26 September 2026 Time: 10am - 2pm (4 hours) Cost: £65 Private group bookings are also available. If you have any queries about the workshop, please contact Anne at ascraftwork@gmail.com. Brook Arts Hub is fully accessible with easy parking and located in Shottery (next door to Anne Hathaway’s Cottage). Feel free to bring your own packed lunch or pop across to The Garden Cafe (opposite) or The Bell Pub (5-minute walk) afterwards. Or why not explore the many sights and eateries that nearby Stratford town has to offer.
