WEEK THREE - JULY 22
Gorgeous Garlands
Wednesday, July 22nd, 6:30pm to 9:00pm
Elaine's signature item!
It was while filming her TV Show "A Day in the Country" way back when, that Elaine learned how to make a garland by machine - kinda like a sewing machine - with a top & bobbin thread.
This inspired her to figure out how to do it by hand. It is now the number one feature for weddings - at the ceremony or best - at the head-table. It also looks great as a decorative for your home - fireplace, bannister or over a hutch.
Tonight you will learn how to make a variety of ropings, swags & garlands & you will make your own 10ft garland to take home. Check our Facebook page for an album dedicated to Garlands.
