At the risk of sounding like a nag, we enthusiastically encourage our readers in the Boston area to order The Garden Club of the Back Bay’s holiday wreaths now, before they sell out. All net proceeds go to neighborhood beautification projects such as tree care and public space garden maintenance, and because the Club is an all-volunteer organization, the raw costs are modest – no administrative overhead. Below, from our archives, is a photo of a tasteful indoor wreath which graced a Commonwealth Avenue home a number of years ago. The tones were based on the customer’s draperies and living room decor. Customization is a specialty. To order, visit https://gardenclubbackbay.org/store
