  • Wreath of the Day – No Bow

    Every now and then a client asks for a wreath with no bow.  We think our wreaths look best with one of our big, gorgeous, full bows – no one in town mistakes our wreaths with wreaths from any other source because of them.  However, here is an example of intricate work which makes a statement without the use of ribbon, created for a client in Beacon Hill.  Liberal use of magnolia leaves, lotus pods, pine cones and two types of eucalyptus makes this appropriate for outdoor use – eucalyptus indoors is just too pungent.
