Make a day of it

I've teamed up with Bespoke by J, an amazing catering business in Cheltenham run by a good friend of mine, so you can add food to your workshop. They'll plan the menu with you, including any dietary needs, so there's one less thing for you to organise.

Food is prepared and supplied by Bespoke by J. Your final price will depend on your menu and numbers.

How it works

Leave the planning to me

  1. Send me an enquiry

    Tell me your date, roughly how many of you there are and which workshop you like the look of.

  2. I'll put a plan together

    I'll check my diary, send you a quote and we'll plan the rest from there.

  3. I bring everything

    I'll set up at your home, holiday let, workplace or venue, so it's all ready before you sit down.

  4. Make it your own

    Everyone creates their own piece and takes it home beautifully packaged, plus a little gift from me.

Gift ideas

Your questions

Good to know

Where do the workshops take place?

Wherever suits you. I can come to your home, a holiday let, your workplace or a venue you've booked, anywhere in Gloucestershire and the Cotswolds, and I'm happy to talk about places further afield. If you'd rather not host, I can look into a venue nearby for you.

How many people can come?

The prices shown are per person for groups of 15 to 30. Smaller, more intimate groups are very welcome and are priced separately, so tell me your numbers and I'll send you a quote. Bigger group? Get in touch and we'll work it out.

Do we need any experience?

None at all. I'll show you everything as we go, and most people are surprised by how much they pick up.

What if someone has allergies, sensitive skin or is pregnant?

Essential oils are natural, but they still contain allergens and they aren't right for everyone. Let me know about any allergies, skin sensitivities or pregnancies when you book and I'll make sure those guests are guided towards suitable options on the day. If anyone's unsure, it's worth checking with their GP or midwife beforehand.

What about food intolerances and allergies?

If you add food, it's prepared by Bespoke by J, who'll help you choose a package and talk through any intolerances, allergies or dietary needs in your group well before the day. Mention them on your enquiry and I'll pass the details on, or you're welcome to contact Bespoke by J directly.

Is there an age limit?

Yes, workshops are for adults aged 18 and over.

Can I give a workshop as a gift?

You can. Bloom Skin gift cards can be used towards any workshop booking. Buy a gift card here.

Can you tailor a workshop for a business or event?

Yes. I'm happy to shape a session around a team wellbeing day, a client event or a celebration. Tell me what you have in mind when you enquire.

How do I book?

Fill in the enquiry form below with a few details. I'll get back to you with dates and a price, and once you're happy I'll send over everything you need to secure your date.

Let's plan your workshop

Tell me a little about what you have in mind and I'll take it from there. There's no commitment at this stage, it's just the start of a conversation.
