CREATE A CHRISTMAS WOODLAND WREATH WITH THE WYLDING FLORAL
We are excited to announce that The Wylding Floral will be returning to the L.F.Markey store, on Sunday 6 December, to host a wreath-making workshop.
Join us for a relaxed session where guests can enjoy the Wylding take on the traditional Christmas wreath - combining woodland materials with textured grasses (which you see used in Japanese New Year Wreaths).
There will be guidance and a structure to work with, but guests will be encouraged to create a wreath in their own style, by exploring the materials on offer and following what catches their eye and represents something they’d like to welcome into their home this Christmas. A part of the wreath will be left ‘open’...open to the possibilities of the coming year.
Suitable for all genders and no prior experience is required. Spaces are limited.
🎟️ Limited to 8 participants

THINGS WE CARRY by Celia Pym
3- 17 November 2026
L.F. Markey is proud to present 'Things We Carry', an exhibition of mended paper bags, collected from Celia’s daily life. Originally used to carry everything from pastries and bread to parsley and buttons, the bags have been torn and worn through use, then carefully darned and patched back together. Their repair celebrates these everyday objects, giving new life to a material designed to be discarded.
'Things We Carry' will showing at L.F. Markey, 50 Dalston Lane, E8 3AH from 3- 17 November.
