Holiday Wreath Making Workshop

Holiday Wreath Making Workshop

Wreath-making classes are hands-down the most popular class offered and typically sell out within hours.

Guests who attend wreath-making classes typically have no prior floral design experience, but will be guided through a two hour class on how to make your own holiday wreath from winter greenery. Wreaths will be made from LIVE winter greenery and will last throughout the season!

Wreaths can be found in the home throughout the year ,but for many, are most well known as festive decorations. They can be made of almost anything and are generally either placed on a flat surface or hung on a wall or front door. What many don’t know is that wreath making has a rich tapestry of meaning that dates back as far as the 7th Century BC!

Join me for a night of history, creativity, and holiday joy! I will teach you the history of wreaths, how to create your own wreath, and extend advice on how to keep it thriving all season long! Bring a friend and make it a fun night out!

Price includes all things necessary to create wreath.

Greenery is normally sticky — come with garden gloves if you do not want sap on your hands. :)
