The best dressed doors of 2011


Greengarland Orange and Cinnamon Wreath on Georgian Farmhouse Door
I thought, although spring is here, to share my  favourite photos of the 2011 Christmass eason.  This one is of a large greengarland Orange and Cinnamon Wreath on possibly one of the nicest doors we dress.   This house is within 200 mtrs of us, and also has some of the best hydrangea bushes, that we use for our hydrangea wreaths.

Standard Holly Tree
              Opposite us also is a beautifully kept standard holly tree, which, this year, had berries like we had never seen before.  This was taken about two weeks before Christmas and was a wonderful sight.  I wandered across the road yesterday to check and there was not a berry to be seen.  Clearly the birds had found it.

We are currently working on making some changes to the website and will be putting some updates on there shortly including details of the 2012 wreath and swag making courses.  We have already confirmed our date with the Avon Gorge and Downs Wildlife Project  and will be running a course on Saturday 15th December 2012 making fireplace and staircase swags.  More to come.
