Nothing beats fresh greens this time of year. Beautiful job! Have you considered growing Leland Cypress in the dirt lands for harvesting greens? They re so beautiful and would be another gorgeous texture in wreaths/garlands. Wondering if they d grow in your area since they re supposed to be hardy zone 6 to 10. they grow really fast and make great hedges. Maybe you re already growing some?

How charming! I have done the foraging for garland greens for decades and still I learned something new. I may not be as skilled as Laura so I tie a red string in the middle of the rope on which I construct the garland to be sure my end result is balanced. Now I need to keep this festive spirit with a fresh cup of hot chocolate. Cheers!

Greens at my garden center cost 12 for a bundle of 4 branches. Prices def have skyrocketed over the years and it s too expensive to buy for diy wreaths and for planters. It s cheaper to buy a misshapen Xmas tree and chop off the branches. And when I went to a tree farm to find one, they gave me all their discarded tree clippings!

After seeing how much wonderful texture the pine cones added to the garland, the wreath looked like it needed some, too. Don't get me wrong, not being critical, I love Laura's artistic style. It's just an observation of the video showing the finished results of the garland and wreath.

Laura, I love your craft sessions. You are an inspiration and an energetic teacher. Thank you! I have a suggestion for next year. It might be fun to do a small projects with seniors in an HOA community or a senior center.

In 1988-1989, my landlord had a garden shop and I used to work off my rent by making hundreds of feet of garland/kissing balls by hand from tree clippings. I had a garland wire machine that cranked the wire.

I used to take my greens cuttings and add them to the fireplace at night in small increments. It perfumed the whole house making for a magical atmosphere.
