Making a Traditional Greenery Wreath
Instructor: Clara Curtis
ONLINE "Live-Time"' Sessions: Tuesday, December 8 and Wednesday, December 16; 3 - 4 p.m.
Free to Arboretum Members | $25 Non-member
The Arboretum's annual wreath-making class takes on a new format this year. Join Clara Curtis, the Arboretum’s senior director for mission delivery, to learn how to make a festive holiday wreath. Participants will be sent a pre-recorded video tutorial to watch on their own time, learning classic wreath making methods and creating a full-sized door wreath using the hand-wrapped bundle method. Then take advantage of two opportunities to join us online for Wreath Q&A, Show & Tell, and a bonus tutorial on tying it all up with a lavish bow. Consider it our gift to you!
- The video along with a list of suggested wreath-making materials and Clara's instructions will be sent on Wednesday, December 2.
- Online "live time" tea-time sessions are Tuesday, December 8, and Wednesday, December 16, from 3 to 4 p.m. Choose one or the other or both!
