Create Magical, Handmade Gifts
Step away from the frantic rush of the high street and into a slower, more soulful way of giving. This festive, hands-on workshop is a chance to pause amidst the busyness of the season and immerse yourself in the gentle joy of creating. Inside our cosy woodland cabin, glowing with lanterns and warmed by the spirit of Yule, you’ll craft a collection of magical, heartfelt gifts — each one made with intention, nature’s beauty, and your own hands.
Rather than shopping for something mass-produced, you’ll spend a day weaving love, care, and seasonal magic into unique creations that your friends and family will treasure. Every gift you make is sustainable, soulful, and deeply personal — the kind of present that carries a story, a memory, and a touch of the earth’s wisdom.
What You’ll Create
Throughout the workshop, you’ll be gently guided through making a bundle of seasonal treasures:
- Herbal Bath Salts – Blends of mineral-rich salts, festive herbs, and essential oils that invite relaxation and restoration during the long winter nights.
- Natural Lip Balm or Salve – Soothing, protective remedies for cold-weather skin, crafted from nourishing oils, beeswax, and herbs.
- Seasonal Intention Candles – Poured and decorated with herbs, flowers, and crystals to hold wishes for love, peace, or abundance through the darker months.
- Foraged Decorations – Rustic treasures made from natural materials like pinecones, dried orange slices, and evergreen sprigs — simple yet full of seasonal charm.
- Potion Bottles or Spell Jars – Personalised magical gifts, carefully layered with herbs, oils, crystals, or charms for wellbeing, protection, or intention.
Each item will be beautifully finished and wrapped, ready to gift — perfect for Yule, the festive season, or simply as thoughtful offerings from the heart.
The Experience
The day is not only about making, but also about reconnecting with the spirit of the season. You’ll arrive to the scent of mulled spices and evergreen branches, and settle into the warmth of the cabin, surrounded by rustic decorations, flickering candles, and a circle of like-minded souls.
As you create, you’ll be invited to slow down and work mindfully, noticing the textures, scents, and beauty of the natural ingredients. Gentle guidance will be given at every stage, along with tips on how to safely and sustainably gather herbs and materials so you can continue these crafts at home.
Breaks throughout the day will give you time to share festive refreshments — from mulled drinks to spiced herbal teas and slices of seasonal cake — adding to the cosy, celebratory atmosphere. You’ll also have space to connect with others, swap ideas, and soak in the nurturing environment.

More Than a Craft Workshop
This is more than just a day of making gifts — it is a chance to honour the turning of the season and the abundance that nature provides. By working with natural materials and traditional methods, you’ll be reminded of the deeper magic of winter: the power of intention, the importance of slowing down, and the joy of giving from the heart.
You’ll leave not only with a beautiful collection of handmade treasures, but also with the inspiration, skills, and confidence to continue creating wild, magical gifts long after the day is over.
Spaces Are Limited
To keep the group small and personal, places are limited. This ensures plenty of guidance, a cosy atmosphere, and the chance to really sink into the magic of the season. If you’re longing for a slower, more meaningful way to prepare for Yule, this is your invitation.
Come with open hands, leave with a full heart and gifts crafted by nature and love.
