Winter Wreath Workshop
Our Wreath Workshop is so fun! Yes let’s get together and enjoy these lovely Ypsi vibes. Let's be these brave people who make stuff, create something, including a fun memory. Let’s dig in, put love into the community, be around others, instead of simply buying some meaningless plastic crap. Yes! We don’t have crap! Let’s use those good old “5 W’s” with that rebel “How” to get you all the info.
Who
Everyone! We have groups of friends, families, co-workers, couples, kids, grandmas and lots of folks come solo because they are a badass and want to do cool stuff even if their friends are not available because “the game is on”;) Come anyway!
What
We will have premade Kits of mixed greens that you can hold like a big heavy baby; silky Cedar, fragrant Fraser Fir, mean but cool Juniper, contrasting Concolor, touch of good old White Pine, mix broadleaf like eucalyptus, lavender foliage, bay(darn do I love bay) and a big scoop of Michigan Hollyberry-shoot! Ya we have the goods, we are totally greenery snobs.
Each Kit will make a super fluffy 16'' wreath or two solid 14'' wreaths. Bundles include frame(s) and wire. You are 110% welcome, even encouraged, to bring your own wreath frame. We are all about reduce, recycle, reuse and DIY. If you bring your own frame(s) you get a bunch of dried flowers. We will have tutorials, examples, pruners, wire cutters, etc. We will have work gloves, dried flowers, and ribbons for sale. Please feel free to bring your own gloves and any additions for yourself or to even share at our “Extras table”.
You can make your wreath with us at Corner or take your kit(s) to go. Choose your day and start time if making on site or choose a pick up day in the check out if taking to go. Choosing to make with us at Corner scores you a huge half of a table for your succession. This space will be plenty of room to cut up your bundle and make either one 16'' wreath or two 14'' wreaths. We will also have wreath kits available on our Flower Shop page for pick up at our home studio starting Thursday December 3rd till sold out.
Where
The Corner Brew at 720 Norris St, Ypsilanti, MI 48198. Get a beer, a cider, and some food. They also have non-alcoholic options. Easy enough parking, yay!
When
The Winter Wreathing Workshops are on December 5th from 12 noon-2pm and 2:30-4:30pm.
Changes! Yes Improvements!
Kits are Bigger! Big enough for a huge fluffy 16'' wreath or to split and make 2 solid 14" wreaths.
More Michigan Hollyberry! Holly can look like candy to little kids or curios pets so you can sub your Holly for bouquet of dried flowers at the event.
More wire!
Wreath Frames are included! Bring your old one and get a bouquet of dried of flowers instead of a frame.
We are having one day of workshops this year, but are offering more to-go kits. We will be back to two days next year. Lots of reasons for this but the biggest one is we haven't had a frost yet and this is pushing farm clean up into December!
