Succulent Wreath Holiday Workshop
December 11, 2021 @ 1:30 pm - 3:30 pm
Registration is Required: Please click here. Enrollment is limited.
Description:
Beautiful succulent wreaths are perfect to spruce up your holiday decorations or as a handmade, personalized gift! Succulents come in an array of types and colors; it’s easy to create an eye-pleasing combination of textures and hues that are long-lasting and require little water or maintenance.
Join us at the Belmont Library for this hands-on, outdoor workshop for adults! We’ll provide an 11-inch moss circular wreath form, a variety of succulents, and all the tools you need. You’ll leave with a beautiful piece of living art and tips on how to keep your wreath looking its best. We’ll also discuss the basic principles of succulent care and propagation, so once your wreath is ready for transplant, you’ll be prepared to pop them into a container, directly into your garden, or reuse them as a new wreath. But most importantly, you’ll learn how to keep them healthy and beautiful for years to come.
