Join us on December 18 for A Basket Full
of Christmas. Yes, in this class we start with a simple basket and
overfill it with the bounty of the holiday season. Fragrant evergreens and hand-picked
pinecones create a long-lasting base for this arrangement. Embellish with your favorite
ribbons and glass balls and you have a design that will last for weeks. Tuck in the fresh
flowers and the basket is full! You can easily replace the flowers as they fade to
keep the magic through the days ahead.
If you love elegant,
then you will love our Christmas
Topiary Class on December 19. The formal elegance of topiary structures
make this design style the perfect arrangement for the holiday season. These long-lasting
and fragrant topiaries are delightful holiday accents for your home. In this class you
will learn the mechanics and design techniques for creating a sensational rose Christmas
topiary. Your topiary will be based upon wintry branches. A festive ball of
evergreens and luxurious red roses is mounted atop.

In Season
Tis the season for berries!Cranberries
are abundant and available most everywhere.I
find it odd that they keep these beautiful red balls in the produce section of the store.As a non-cook, I cant imagine buying them for
anything but decorating.I always find my
edible cranberries in the canned food aisle.
