festive creative workshop studio
christmas wreath making with bunches of sussex
Get creative with Bunches of Sussex who are hosting a very special Christmas Wreath Making Wonce from specialist florists from £44rkshop!
You will design and make your very own wreath, with the support and guidance from specialist florists just £40 per person.
The class is open to all ages and abilities - everyone is welcome (but littles ones will need supervision with using the snippers)
So, bring your friends and family or come solo and make new friends as you bond over some festive crafting!
Kitsch Christmas Wreath & Tree Ornament Workshop
Join Anya, from Remakers Unlimited for a super fun Kitsch Christmas workshop and learn how to make your very own unique, quirky, super fantastic, crazy statement wreath or tree ornament.
You will use reclaimed, reused and recycled materials from sparkly tinsel, bright ornaments & baubles to fun kitschy toys and accessories saved and rescued from landfill!
Whether you are a beginner or an experienced maker this workshop is for everyone. Anya will guide you step by step from start to finish. You will also have the opportunity to add your own personal message to your wreath too.
All materials will be provided but do feel free to bring anything that you would love to be part of your wreath!
the deco cafe
Deco Restaurant and Cafe launched in Spring 2024 in the newly renovated Grade 2 listed building of Saltdean Lido, and if you haven’t visited yet, why not make a day of it? They’ll be serving up delicious brunch and Sunday roasts and can be pre-booked on their website.
Situated in the Rotunda with views out across the pool, the café is found on the ground floor and the restaurant upstairs (next to our fair). Their menus are seasonal and they source their produce as locally as possible.
There is also a bar in the Ballroom, which will be open to visitors.
GETTING HERE
Saltdean Lido is easily accessible by car or bus.
There is a large free car park & bus routes 27, 47, Coaster 12, 12A.
Upon arriving at the Lido, please head to the main entrance and take the stairs or lift to the Ballroom & Lounge. You’ll then enter into our magical Christmas Makers Fair.
