Garden Club’s Grapevine Wreathmaking Workshop Delights Members

On October 7 the Garden Club of Woodbridge held a luncheon and "Grapevine Wreathmaking Workshop" for members at Massaro Farm. The class was led by the Club's Artistic Design Chairwoman, Mary Ann Tyma.

After Mary Ann exhibited some beautiful, complete grapevine wreaths, and as instructions were given, attendees were provided with bare wreaths for decorating. Magnolia tree leaves, hydrangeas, berry branches, pine cones, dried fruit, sedum and pine branches were among the materials available. Various wires and glues were used to anchor the florals to the wreaths. Multicolored and patterned ribbons were located nearby to supply additional dazzle.

It was a beautiful, fun, creative day for everyone including wreaths crafted by Shilpa Jain, Jane Gelernter, Ekata Karanth, Jeanne Arsenault and Carrie Velardi in photo.
