Wreath Making Workshops & More
Just in time for the holidays, join us inside the Kyoudou Center at the Gresham Japanese Garden to make a holiday wreath. Workshop includes a 16″ wreath, wire, an abundant array of plant material, and homemade bows! Enjoy a glass a wine and snacks too!
Sue Protz,, GJG Activities Director along with ikebana instructor Nana Bellerud will lead the workshop and assist with bringing out the creative side in you!
Please enjoy some of the works of art from the 2024 wreath making workshops.
The best part of teaching wreath making workshops is watching the participants creativity shine through using the conifers and evergreen shrubs inherent textures and color variations. The bonus was showing pruning techniques too!
