SUMMARY:Winter Wreath Workshops - SOLD OUT
DESCRIPTION:This event is sold out. Please join us for a future event.  \nNothing brings warmth to a home in winter like a homemade wreath. Join Stoneleigh staff for a guided workshop to create your own festive wreath using fresh greens and other natural materials from Stoneleigh’s diverse plant collections.    \nWe’ll provide the materials\, detailed instructions\, and guidance so that you can walk away with a gorgeous wreath fit for your front door. Please bring gloves\, pruners\, and a bit of creative energy. We recommend bringing a large box for transporting your new creation home.   \nThis class will be held indoors at the Carriage House.
