Lovely group of people learning about Compostable/sustainable wreath making with Zinnia Floral Design this evening Moolah - Local Food. I think you'll agree everyone achieved fabulous designs with their own individual styles - brilliant work ๐๐๐ฟ๐๐
I've been asked about the hand crafted hoops that form the base of the wreaths ....well.... This year I've made them from hazel grown at my home. I'm trialling one from honeysuckle as well.... The final picture is last year's which I hand crafted from Somerset willow. Then of course they got covered up ๐๐ฟ๐๐ฒ but now you know that all that loveliness is lurking underneath ๐ฟ๐๐ฒ
