Decorate Your Home with a Weston Farms Southern Magnolia Harvest Wreath You Made at the JC Raulston Arboretum

Weston Farms Southern Magnolia wreaths have dazzled national designers, journalists, and presidential florists alike. In this class, creative director and founder of Weston Farms, Erin Weston, will share her design secrets and signature combinations for fall wreaths using Weston Farms exclusive southern magnolia and fall botanicals. She will teach you how to make basic bouquets (stand alone arrangements themselves) to be crafted into a stunning 24" or 28" wreath. In addition to being beautiful and fresh, Weston Farms Southern Magnolia wreaths dry beautifully to be enjoyed for years. Materials for the wreaths are included in the price. Add ons such as feathers and pine cones will be available for purchase.
