The lowdown

Christmas in Australia looks different. It smells like gum leaves and pine, it feels like summer heat and native blooms — and it`s nothing like a Northern Hemisphere December.

At Merchant & Green, we`ve designed a Christmas wreath workshop that celebrates exactly that. Working with fresh Australian native flowers and foliage alongside traditional Christmas botanicals — pine, cinnamon twirls, dried oranges and preserved gum leaves — you`ll create a wreath that is genuinely beautiful, entirely natural, and uniquely Australian.No plastic. No synthetic materials. Everything you work with is sustainable, biodegradable or recyclable.

In this 90-minute workshop, our expert floristry team will guide you through the fundamentals of wreath construction — weaving, wirework and botanical styling — so you leave with something you`re genuinely proud to hang on your door.

What You`ll Learn

• Wreath construction fundamentals — weaving and simple wirework

• How to work with fresh botanicals alongside dried and preserved elements

• Styling principles for a balanced, beautiful wreath

• How to care for your wreath to maximise its longevity

The Experience

Merchant & Green is a working florist and plant studio — not a craft classroom. You`ll work inside our light-filled Redfern studio, surrounded by premium plants and fresh flowers, guided by florists who work with Australian botanicals every day.

It`s the difference between a generic Christmas craft class and a genuinely premium botanical experience.
