If you’ve visited the legendary Gallery of Wreaths at BBG’s Holiday Marketplace, you may have wondered how wreath designers create their botanical masterpieces and whether you can craft your own! This 2-hour program  will combine a classroom introduction with guided hands-on practice using 14″ balsam wreath forms, after which you will take home your own decorated holiday wreath. Chris Ferrero will lead this class, starting with a slide program introducing principles, techniques, and creative ideas. Then participants will be assigned workstations in the same studio used by BBG’s own wreath designers, several of whom will be on hand to help you select materials and practice optimal construction skills. Experience with a hot glue gun is recommended. Completion of this program will prepare you to become a BBG Wreath Designer.
