La Petite Soiree Bermuda

The Art of Letter Writing & Making Pressed-Flower Wax Seals - A Creative Experience

March 12th, 5:30pm

A 2.5-hour creative experience at Waterville in partnership with the Bermuda National Trust 

 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. 

 

The 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.
