Celebrate the Season with your Family!
Create wreaths festooned with abundant foliage made from live and dried foliage. Unique elements like lichens, seaweed, stones, pine cones, seed pods, dried flowers, thistles, and shells will add a fun flair to your wreaths.
Wreaths make great gifts and the process of making them encourages you to get out into nature and forage.
We will cover creating the base of the wreath with vines, how to incorporate bundles and elements with wire, adding delicate foliage with a hot glue gun. All materials will be provided.
