PepperHarrow Holiday Wreath Making Magic

As the holiday season approaches, the air is filled with a sense of joy and anticipation. The twinkling lights in our event barn, the scent of freshly dried oranges with cinnamon sticks, and the merry tunes that fill the air all contribute to a magical atmosphere. With the stage set, guests arrive at the farm and embrace the festive spirit during our special Holiday Wreath Making Workshops, where they are invited to unleash their creativity and take home a touch of personalized charm to their home for the season.

What sets our classes apart are the carefully curated elements we provide that make each wreath a unique piece of art. We believe that every detail matters when it comes to creating something truly special. From the selection of lush evergreen branches to the delicate ornaments and whimsical ribbons, we pay meticulous attention to the materials we provide and the magical atmosphere we create. Our goal is to not only guide guests through the process of making a wreath, but to also inspire them to explore their own style to create a masterpiece that truly reflects their personality.

Dried Flower Delight

One of the highlights of our wreath making classes is the exquisite selection of dried flowers. These delicate blooms, preserved to perfection, add a timeless and rustic charm to your wreath. From vibrant hues of orange and yellow marigolds to the subtle beauty of dried lavender or other natural colored flowers, our classes offer a diverse array of flowers to suit every taste.

We spend at least 5 hours per week during much of the summer, setting aside time to gather flowers specifically for drying to be included in our holiday wreath making workshops. It’s a lot of work to dedicate to this activity, but we’re always happy that we did the work, because when we get to wreath making and our dried flowers are bursting at the seams with a huge array of colors, we’re never disappointed and neither are our guests!

Natural Pods are Notable

For a truly organic feel, our wreaths selections include pods like milkweed and teasel, which can be found foraging around our property. These unique additions such as these provide texture and interest, bringing an earthy, botanical touch to your holiday decor. Each pod tells a story of nature's beauty, making your wreath a conversation piece for gatherings and celebrations.

Gathered Grasses & Graceful Greenery

Gathered from around the farm, the grasses such as Pampas, Little Blue Stem, and Indian are used in our wreath making workshops provide a gentle, graceful sway to our guests creatiosn. These subtle additions create movement and balance, making your wreath a dynamic and eye-catching seasonal wreath.

The foundation of any of our wreaths lies in its greenery. Our workshops offer a selection of premium greens, including the rich red cedar, aromatic incense cedar, regal noble fir, and classic white pine. This diverse mix ensures that your wreath not only looks beautiful but also carries the fresh scent of the season.

Luxurios Ribbons

The finishing touch comes in the form of luxurious ribbons. Choose from a selection of velvet, satin, plaid, and other seasonal patterns to complement your wreath's theme. The ribbons not only add a festive flair but also allow you to personalize your creation to match your unique style.

In our Holiday Wreath Making Workshops, we strive to provide an immersive and delightful experience that goes beyond the ordinary. Each workshop is carefully crafted with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring that participants are transported to a world where creativity flourishes and the captivating scents of nature fill the air. With a harmonious blend of dried flowers, foraged elements, natural pods, woodland treasures, farm-gathered grasses, lush greenery, dried citrus, and a variety of ribbons, our wreaths become more than mere decorations – they become works of art that tell a story of nature's beauty and the festive spirit. The beauty lies not only in the finished wreath, but also in the process of creating it, as our knowledgeable instructors guide and inspire participants to unlock their inner artist. We’d like to invite you to join us in the future to immerse yourself in the enchanting world of wreath making, and together, let us create memories and traditions that will last for years to come.
