The Art of Letter Writing & Making Pressed-Flower Wax Seals
La Petite Soirée is partnering with the Bermuda National Trust to host a 2.5-hour workshop experience at Waterville, a breathtaking 300-year-old Bermuda property, the perfect setting for an evening of timeless correspondence, creativity, and connection.
A handwritten letter is never "just a letter." It's a gift. It holds love, preserves memories, and brings joy in our absence. In this workshop, you'll learn how to turn simple correspondence into a sensory experience one that surprises, delights, and feels deeply personal.
What you'll experience:
-
You'll be welcomed with a drink and light refreshments as you settle into the space
-
Learn the foundations of thoughtful letter writing, including how to create a letter that feels like a keepsake
-
Write a letter to your future self on handmade paper (filled with your hopes, wishes, and intentions)
-
Discover an introduction to wax seals, including the rich symbology and hidden messages woven into classic designs.
-
Create press flower wax seals (a customer favourite)
-
Practice multiple seals with guided instruction so you feel confident creating them again at home
A beautiful bonus:
After the workshop, your letter will be mailed back to you in 3 months' time, a gentle reminder of what you wanted for yourself and who you were becoming.
You'll also take everything home:
All wax seal tools used in the workshop are yours to keep, so you can continue making pressed flower wax seals anytime you feel inspired.
*This is a small-group experience and spaces are very limited. We HIGHLY recommend you reserve your spot today.
