The holiday season is almost here! Join us at Weymouth Center for the Arts & Humanities on Sunday, November 25, 2018 from 1:00-4:00PM for a live holiday wreath making workshop with Susan Mc Crimmon.
Wreath forms for crimping, crimping machine, and some greenery. Lots of advice and encouragement provided!
Limited participants.
For more information or to make a reservation, call (910) 690-0991.
Please bring 15 handfuls of various greens, each 5-6 inches long.
Suggested greens:
- Frazier Fir
- Boxwood
- Cryptomeria
- Dwarf Nandina
- Yew
- Eucalyptus
- Aucuba
- Juniper
- Holly (with berries)
- Cedar
- Arborvitae
- Spruce
- English Ivy
- Ornamental Grasses
- Sedium
- Berry Clusters
- Dried Okra Pods
- Magnolia
Helpful Tips:
- There is a vast array of plants that can be used in live wreaths.
- If you are unsure about a specific plant, simply take a cutting and see how it looks after a few days. You’ll need to bring a mixture of fresh greenery to the workshop. And a variety is always best. Very few greens do well alone.
- Never make your cuttings too short. Minimum of 6-8 inches.
- Bring extra greens to trade and share.
In case of rain, the workshop will move to the side porch of Weymouth.
