About This Event

A craft event, 'Crafted Christmas', will be held at Wallington on July 30, 2026, at 10:30, where visitors will create clay leaves for Christmas decorations.

This year, we’re inviting visitors and local crafters to help bring Christmas to life at Wallington by creating some unique handmade decorations.

Each room’s decorations will highlight a different material and craft style, celebrating both historic and contemporary techniques connected to the Wallington’s heritage.

When you step into the drawing room this year there'll be a striking ceramic installation taking centre stage. A geometric ‘tree’ made from more than 750 individually handcrafted leaves. Get hands-on this summer and create a unique clay leaf for the 'tree' in these free drop-in sessions, suitable for all ages.

You will be able to collect your leaf after Christmas. More details will be provided at the drop-in session.

Come along and help us build a truly special Christmas at Wallington.
