Usually the log arrangements are all about texture and I use very few flowers; after all texture reigns in the forests.
But for this memorial service, I learned that the woods and flowers had been favorites of the client’s father. So for once, flowers prevailed.
Come join us and learn how to make a stunning Autumnal Wreath on November 16th (there is only one space left) or November 17th.
Create an eye-catching textural wreath , which will provide a classic welcome at the door – or a beautifully seasonal centerpiece. You’ll use materials which reflect the abundance of the Pacific Northwest landscape: rough bark, cushiony moss, lichen-encrusted twigs, bright berries, and small fruit from apple and pear trees.
Monday, November 16 or Tuesday, November 17 6:30 – 9:00pm $75

Joni Shimabukuro took these lovely pictures.
In every culture around the world, wreaths always have been associated symbolism of eternal love.
They can be designed around walls and doors and used in a variety of ways as centerpieces. Or they can be worn as head dresses by brides or flower girls alike.
This wreath, covered with dahlias, roses, chocolate cosmos, scabiosa, green blackberries, figs and other textures sits on the rim of a compote, filled with berries, cherries and plums

This wedding took place at the beach house of the bride’s parents. The front door was decorated with a wreath made out of driftwood that the bride had collected at the beach a few weeks prior to the wedding.
