Number of places: 10
Join Eden Floral Styling for a wonderful Sunday of festive craft to put you in the mood for Christmas. Owners Vicky and Jodie will teach you how to create three bespoke Christmas designs; a festive wreath, garland and table centre, for you to take home. Eden like you to be able to be as creative and experimental in your own design as you like, and for that reason they provide a great choice of materials for you to work with.
The workshop begins with making a festive wreath to adorn your door, you will create the base yourself with spruce and seasonal fresh foliage, and further decorate this to your taste.
You will then make your garland, designed for you to put in various locations at home. Again this will be made entirely from scratch using the finest spruce and foliage and decorated to your style. Finally we will make a beautiful table centre in oasis with candles.
Picnic lunch, morning and afternoon tea, coffee and biscuits are all included.
What You Need To Bring
Just yourself.
A festive picnic lunch, morning and afternoon tea, coffee and biscuits included.
All materials will be provided, however clients can bring their own secateurs and apron if they prefer.
THE WORKSHOP SPACE
All our workshops are held in the Loom Shop on the second floor of the Weavers Factory. We keep the number of places low to enable our tutors to give each student the right amount of attention, creating both a relaxed and pleasurable experience. Free tea, coffee and biscuits are provided.
The Loom Shop: Our large double-height education space is located on the second floor of the Weavers Factory. The large stone mullion windows which were essential for weaving in the 19th Century, give plenty of light for working and wonderful views across Uppermill and Saddleworth Moor. The room is full of original features including Georgian brick walls, fireplaces, oak beams, and Victorian wooden hooks for coats and bags. Course attendants have exclusive use of our private toilet on the first floor.
The Weavers Factory: Our Grade-II listed building is located on New Street in Uppermill, Saddleworth. Unfortunately our listed building status prevents us from making the Loom Shop wheelchair-friendly, please email us before you book if you have any special requirements.
Getting here: Uppermill is located on the outskirts of Greater Manchester, seven miles from the city centre and less than an hour from Leeds, Sheffield, Liverpool, Hull, Bradford and Preston. It is easily accessible by both car and public transport.
Car: Free parking is available in the adjacent New Street Car Park, the nearby Saddleworth Pool and at five other car parks in the centre of Uppermill. (NB: New Street itself is a busy street with a 30-minute limit so please park in the neighbouring streets without time limits)

Weavers Factory Workshop Terms and Conditions
What To Expect
Weavers Factory workshops are designed to take you away from it all and provide the environment, time and guidance you need to create. You can expect a warm welcome, skilled and friendly tutors plus the chance to meet like-minded people keen to share ideas and experiences - you can even leave us to clear up the mess! Arrive in time to meet other participants over a cup of tea or coffee and biscuits. For full-day courses you will begin your session at the appointed time and there will be a mid-morning break for refreshments and a chance to talk over progress with others. We do not provide lunch but feel free to bring your own food and sit in the garden (weather permitting) or relax in one of our lovely art galleries. There are some great cafes in the village; you can have a nice lunch at The Reclamation Room, or lovely tea and cake at the Cake Kitchen. Finish time is given as a target – there is some flexibility depending on how your work is progressing and depending on the tutor and the group. We aim for your time with us to be a real treat; you could always learn a new skill in a shed or a draughty village hall with a curly sandwich, but we want you to have more fun than that, so we make sure you’re looked after in a high-quality environment with good company and inspirational tutors.
What You Need To Bring With You

If you change your mind more than 14 days after booking we will be more than happy to transfer your full fee to any other workshop (if places are available) providing that it is not within 3 weeks of the start of the workshop. If you wish to cancel your booking at any time more than 3 weeks prior to the date of the workshop your fee will be refunded minus a 20% administration charge, alternatively you can transfer the full fee to something else without penalty. If you are cancelling a place which has been booked using a gift voucher, a cash refund cannot be made. However, up to 3 weeks prior to the workshop the voucher can be transferred to something else. After that, normal cancellation terms apply. No refunds or transfers can be made to anyone who cancels less than 3 weeks prior to the date of the workshop, however you are free to send a substitute. If we are able to resell your cancelled place within 3 weeks of the workshop we will refund your fee minus a 20% administration charge.
If we cancel
In the unlikely event that The Weavers Factory needs to cancel a workshop for any reason you will receive a full refund of the fees paid or we can transfer the value to another workshop, subject to availability.
Please note as we are a small private organisation who receive no funded support our viability is finely-balanced because of our commitment to provide the best experience possible at the most affordable price. To achieve this for all our customers, we have to enforce a rigid cancellation policy, or risk price increases to everyone. This seems only fair, especially when workshops are in such demand.
