This is a workshop where you learn the techniques to create a fresh, new style of outdoor Winter planter: tree-top style. Participants will use a simple black pot (12" diametre) and pop in a 2-3 foot real evergreen tree (cut, not rooted) as the focal point. Then, layers of fresh evergreen boughs are added to the base of the planter to create a "skirt" that is lush and fragrant. Natural accents such as dogwood, pinecones and magnolia leaves are offered along with items from our "Accent Buffet" to create your own, unique masterpiece. Note: this planter can be stand-alone or pop inside another, decorative pot (fits standard urns too). In this workshop you will make ONE planter; if you require a second one, our staff can gather up the materials for you to make another at home or why not register a friend to work alongside you? -
NEW! Sunday December 07, 3:00 p.m. All that glitters is gold! A golden, round metal tray with four raised tealight stands is the elegant base for this indoor tabletop arrangement. In the middle of the tealight stands will be a small gold-toned pot that will be filled with fresh floral foam for participants to design with mixed evergreens that will arch out amongst and between the tealight stands. Gold tipped pinecones, light florals and other accents will complete the project. Tealights will be included. We have only enough containers for one session, don’t miss this workshop! Once all materials arrive, a photo of the completed project will be provided. -
NEW - two sessions available. This year’s ceramic container is a white polar bear with a happy, excited expression – it’s Christmas break and almost the BIG day! The polar bear pot will be filled with snipets of mixed evergreens , dogwood, pinecones, light floral accents and fun, seasonal picks will complete the project. This arrangement is to remain indoors and, by keeping the floral foam moist, will last over a month! Photo is of container only; photo of full project will be available once evergreens are here! -
NEW! Gingerbread Duo has only one session and will be held on Sunday December 14, 3:00 p.m. This new workshop is perfect for an adult and child/teen (ages 6+ recommended) to do together. Two containers will be designed: a larger (14”) oval gingerbread themed tin pot and a smaller (6”) gingerbread pot. How fun! This indoor table centrepiece project will feature the fragrance of fresh evergreens and light florals, not sugar and spice - but will still be nice! Accents for both pots will include natural pinecones, dogwoods and playful gingerbread themed décor accents. It is suggested to come as a pair to complete the projects in the 1.25 hours allotted. If only one person comes, staff may assist with the second container. Photo shows one of the containers to be used; full photo of project coming soon! -
