🎄 Live Wreath Making Workshops Return to Whistlestop Manor in Sweetwater This November

The historic Whistlestop Manor on Head of Creek Road is bringing back its popular holiday craft tradition this season, offering two sessions of guided wreath-making workshops designed for friends and family gatherings. The November 21 event sold out every seating last year, signaling strong community interest in hands-on holiday experiences across the Dunlap area.

📅 Event Details & What’s Included

Whistlestop Manor will host two two-hour workshops on Saturday, November 21, 2026-one from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. and another from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. ✨ Each ticket is $100 per guest, with an option for an adult and child helper at $140. Attendees will receive all wreath-making materials and decorations, an hour of gourmet appetizers prepared by the manor’s in-house chef, festive holiday beverages, small gourmet plates, photo opportunities with props and costumes, and a personalized hand-crafted wreath to take home.

The experience extends beyond the craft itself. Guests can enjoy a bonfire, participate in door prize drawings and contests, and browse vendor offerings throughout the day. 🎁 For those wanting to extend their visit, overnight stays in luxury suites are available for $220 and include a homemade breakfast.

🎨 Private Parties & Group Bookings

Groups of ten or more guests can book private wreath-making parties at any time, making the event flexible for corporate retreats, family reunions, or community organizations. Interested participants can call (423) 271-6380 or message the manor directly to reserve their spot. Given last year’s sellout, early booking is recommended. 📞

💡 Why This Matters for the Community

Holiday craft workshops offer more than festive fun-they create opportunities for neighbors to gather, create together, and build memories during the busy season. For residents across the Sequatchie Valley and Cumberland Plateau communities who follow local events, Whistlestop Manor‘s return to this tradition signals a commitment to hosting meaningful seasonal gatherings at a historic venue. The manor’s location on five acres in Sweetwater, Monroe County, provides a scenic backdrop for both the craft experience and potential overnight getaways. 🏡
