A NEW Collaborative Workshop - “Woven Wonder” Saturday March 23, 1:00pm We’ve created a new project in collaboration with “The Branch Ranch” in Warkworth and we think you will love it! The first hour of this hands-on workshop will be working with Jessica to create a willow woven obelisk that will sit on the rim of a country/modern chic square planter consisting of black metal and reclaimed wood. While learning weaving techniques she will also guide you to make a small willow birdnest. Next, Vikki will take over and guide participants in planting a Spring arrangement full of ranunculus, pre-sprouted hyacinths, daffodils, tulips, fluffy ferns, trailing ivy, blooming calandivia, pussy willows and foliage fillers. The birdnest, nestled with a few faux eggs and birdies, will tuck in for a magical Springtime design! Total height of the planter is 22”; the wooden planting vessel can be separated from the metal base to be used as a tabletop planter or the whole unit can styled as a compliment to your furniture. A unique design! -
“Some Bunny Loves You” Workshop Saturday March 23, 10:00 a.m. The unique wooden and metal planter from the “Woven Wonder Workshop” comes in a set of two – while the larger is this afternoon’s workshop, let’s use the smaller size (overall height 13”) to create a beautiful tabletop planter for Spring in the morning session! In the reclaimed wood, square planter, participants will plant a selection of Spring bloomers such as primula, ranunculus, pre-sprouted bulbs, green houseplants, begonias, calandivia and more. As a finished product, the wooden planter will be mounted on the black metal stand, and your arrangement will be full and lush, accented with decorative mosses, pussy willows plus a whimsical rabbit face (stone, metal or wood, TBD) peeking out from amid the foliage. -
