Sticking to the crafting theme, wreath making is a tradition that has been around for a long time. In our current climate of dismay mixed with yuletide joy, we remember what a wreath represents. A wreathes circular shape represents eternity, no beginning and no end. I particularly like the Christian meaning of the wreath, everlasting life, growth, and the circle of life. My family and I have wreathes for every season. I love round edges and the beautiful brightness that a wreath brings to the room.
Designing your own wreath can be meaningful as well. What does the circle of life represent to you? What colors would you use? You can make something to bring life into a space in your home. In addition, make wreathes as gifts or just a fun activity to do in your home. Longwood Gardens in Kennett Square puts on a beautiful display of holiday magic in all its glory throughout the gardens. The love of horticulture and all things garden is all over this place. They offer online wreath making courses for the public. I have included the link below.
I have included a local business that is offering wreath making courses as well. Supporting our local entrepreneurs is vital at this time in our country. Many of us came here with a hope, and a wish, and have made dreams come true. Hardworking, resilient people opening businesses, and supporting families doing things they love. In this time, we must remember many spirits are being crushed by seeing dreams falling apart as well as the uncertainty and fear around us. If we can spare let us helps those in our communities once again, keep their dreams alive. Please comment with a link to a local farm you know that is doing this activity.
