It was one of the hottest evenings of the year for our September ‘ in house’ meeting but our thoughts were moving on to the later seasons. As a flower club we have taken up the challenge to be more environmentally focussed so this month members were challenged to make a ‘Sustainable Wreath’. No foam or wire! The club provided the wreath rings and twine; from there everyone got creative and made some beautiful decorations. Many had autumnal colours , some were Halloween themed and we even had a Christmas one decorated with tinsel!- but they all looked great. They certainly indicated wreaths are not just for Christmas but can reflect seasonal changes throughout the year. We also had fun quizzes, plant identification, and home made cakes . A very enjoyable. sociable and relaxed evening when everyone had more time to chat to other members than we do on ‘demonstration’ evenings. Thank you to everyone involved in the organisation of the evening and the cake making!
