This autumn wreath-making event in Oakwood, Leeds is perfect for those searching for an intimate, autumnal afternoon full of crafts and fun.
After all, wreaths are officially no longer just for Christmas. Tones of bright orange, red and pastel yellows can brighten up any doorway in autumn, too, as the organisers of this autumnal workshop know all too well.
Always most fulfilling when they’re created by hand, you can now embrace your inner wreath-making creativity by making your own at Tasty Kitchen and Coffee in Oakwood this October.
Join BlumenKind’s autumn wreath-making workshop on Thursday 7 October and handcraft your own design that will give your neighbours‘ some serious front door envy.
Ticketholders will be invited into Tasty Kitchen and Coffee at 7 pm and find nibbles, fizz and an expert teacher on hand to guide them through the process.
The cosy cafe will provide the perfect backdrop to the event, but if you need any extra leaves to complete your design, take advantage of its mesmerising location. One of the UK’s ‘most beautiful parks, Roundhay Park, is just footsteps away and filled with crunchy, falling leaves.
There are only twelve places available to keep the workshop intimate and friendly, so the café is inviting guests to book their tickets on Eventbrite early to avoid disappointment.
Tasty Kitchen and Café is usually open 9 am until 4.30 pm every day. The family-friendly café offers guests a choice of traditional British lunches, like paninis and cold sandwiches or flavours from across the world, including falafel or halloumi salads, Texan-inspired burgers and mouth-watering grilled cheese sandwiches.
The Street Angels Burger is a house speciality, not just because of its double beef patties, but because £1 of every burger sold goes to Leeds charity ‘Homeless Street Angels’
Wash their tempting treats down with a healthy energising coconut milkshake or try Tasty’s selection of sweet shakes made from ice cream and topped with either fudge, popcorn or pretzels.
Orders can also be delivered to selected Leeds addresses, so you don’t even need to leave the house to try these delicious delights.
Tasty Kitchen and Café host intimate events, business meetings and barbecues throughout the year, so why not use the Autumn Wreath Making Workshop as an opportunity to grab a first glimpse at what may become your next meeting spot?
