THE BEST CHRISTMAS FLORISTRY WORKSHOPS FROM CHELSEA TO WALTHAMSTOW.

- BY AMIRA HASHISH

Wreath your home in style

What better way to kick off the festive season than to make your own wreath? Whether you lean towards wild foliage or luxurious trimmings, wreath-making workshops from Claridge's to Mare Street Market offer the chance to get creative and add a personal touch to your Christmas decor. Warning, they often get booked up well in advance so be sure to plan ahead to avoid disappointment.

PITZHANGER MANOR & GALLERY

Flowers by Louise pops up at this Ealing venue for two wreath-making workshops. Guests will be greeted with a festive tipple and seasonal treats before a step-by-step guide to crafting a wreath from scratch. All materials and tools are provided. November 26 and December 3, £85, pitzhanger.org.uk

REBEL REBEL

East London's rock'n'roll florists are hosting wreath-making events in the Chandelier Room at Mare Street Market in Hackney, with mince pies and Prosecco to boot. Many of the dates are already fully booked, but snap up tickets for December 11 while you can.

December 11, £95, rebelrebel.co.uk

Review: Need a sound night's sleep? These earbuds can even cancel your neighbours

I am incredibly noise-sensitive. I have the disposition of an irritable bat, which is only exacerbated in a sleep setting. And I have neighbours whose noise is constant: coughing, kids screaming, shouting.
