Warmly welcome visitors to your home any time of the year with these beautiful tī kōuka wreaths. In this workshop you'll learn how to make a strong and beautiful twine, which you'll then transform into a wreath. The twine-making techniques taught in this workshop originate from the UK/Europe. We will be using tī kōuka/cabbage tree leaves as these are such an abundant and multi-purpose material that we can find all around us.
