Fresh Holiday Floral Arrangements

Presented by Mary Beth Hayes

It’s never too early for a little bit of holiday spirit and some jolly good holiday cheer! Join the Amherst Garden Club for one of our most popular programs of the year, Fresh Holiday Floral Arrangements.

Floral designer Mary Beth Hayes will inspire you as she demonstrates a variety of seasonal and holiday arrangements. You will learn how to make four unique floral arrangements using the best materials that the fall season has to offer.

Mary Beth will discuss design principles and tips, as well as different foam-free mechanics for your holiday arrangements, and will also provide helpful sourcing information for supplies and flowers.

Finally, to ensure that you are filled with the holiday spirit and the excitement of the holidays to come, we will be raffling the four floral arrangements off as raffle prizes at the end of the meeting!! Raffle tickets will be on sale throughout the morning.
