Christmas 2016
 I'm a little bit Country, I'm a little bit Rock 'n Roll
That’s what came to mind when I was thinking of how to sum up this year’s Holiday Workshops. I knew I wanted to use the snowy white owls in our Creativity Morning. So the whimsical side of me wanted to call our theme “Owl I Want for Christmas” or “Owl Be Home for Christmas”. But the classy side of me wanted a more universal name. Since the Porch Pot was designed with a charming lantern focal point, I knew I had my answer by calling our morning workshop “Silent Night”. Can’t you just imagine you and your guests walking into your home after a light snow? Everything is magically quiet, as the snow absorbs the night sounds. A calm, comforting feeling envelops you. Who knows what waits for you on the other side of the door, but for now, you remember why you decorate your home for the holidays: To celebrate the season with your friends and family.
 
But don’t worry, I haven’t forgotten the whimsy!  The biggest surprise last year was the Grinch Tree. Both the kid’s class and the full-sized version were a huge hit. People sent me loads of pictures when they got them home. There is nothing wrong with having a little fun, too, during the holidays, especially if it reminds you of the story behind that Grinch Tree.   A quick glance at it as you leave your home to go shopping may remind you to be a little kinder when you find yourself in line behind the person counting pennies, or when the waitress forgets the cream for your coffee.
And speaking of kindness, $5 from every Christmas Cat Wreath sold will go to The Second Chance Animal Shelter.  This is a brand new class, brought to us by our friend and garden center owner in Virginia.
So check out the new list, but please, please REGISTER EARLY. We are hosting over 50 private classes this season, so there may not be time for a second class if the first one fills up, like we usually do. If you’d like more info on our private classes, contact me at Tina@BemisFarms.com. In brief, you need a minimum of 10 people for a class here at the nursery, and a minimum of 15 to 20, depending on how far away you are, for a class at your place. We still have some mornings available, and a few afternoons. Most of the evenings are already booked until December 12th , but it never hurts to ask.  We start booking classes a year in advance, so if we can’t work something out this year, you can get on the calendar for next year!
Bring a Friend, Have Some Fun, and Leave the mess behind!

Harvest Memories

 Monday, November 14, 2016 at 10am OR 7pm
Picture
Top a pumpkin with dried flowers, pods, cones, gourds, and hot pepper accents.  This is a very easy way for those who don't feel crafty to succeed.  Makes a GREAT gift if you are visiting someone for Thanksgiving.  They already have a bottle of wine:)

Williamsburg Fruit Plaque

Thursday, November 17, 2016 at 10am OR 7pm
Picture
Design in the authentic style of Williamsburg, VA using shiny magnolia leaves and bright red apples. Staying authentic, we use only ingredients available during Colonial times; Pods, berries, cones and feathers all work, but no ribbons or gold, (unless you want to be a rebel!)  as these are considered Victorian-style. Perfect as either a centerpiece or door decoration. You can even tuck a taper candle in the middle, and it can do double-duty! A centerpiece for Thanksgiving, and for a wall or door after.

Grinch Tree

Friday, November 25, 2016 at 10am OR 7pm
Picture
You are welcome to bring your kids with you to this class, but we've found that just because we've grown up, we adults still secretly adore all the magical, whimsical things about Christmas. This  three to 4 foot tree (you decide!) includes a huge selection of baubles, balls, stars, and swirls, that were surely some of the stuff that Dr. Suess used as inspiration. This is perfect as an outdoor porch pot, and can also be used inside as a Christmas tree. Everyone LOVED this last year, and sent us their pictures from their homes.

Choosing this class is a no-brainer if you are a "Horse Person." Or make a Reindeer head for a classic yet whimsical decoration. This is much easier than it looks.  In fact, it is easier than a regular wreath to make, as we do the hard work ahead of time by making your frame.  Simply BRING YOUR OWN STAPLE GUN and follow along.  You can choose ribbon to match your barn colors or home.

You need to see this in person.  The picture doesn't do it justice. You will create a little woodland snow scene inside a glass bowl, like a snow globe, and top it off with a decorated top hat.

Kid's Mini Grinch Tree

Saturday, December 17, 2016 at 9:40am
This is the final installment of 2016 for our "940 Saturdays" Kids Classes. Because there are only 940 Saturdays from when your child is born and until your child turns 18, this is Bemis Farms Nursery's way of offering them a chance to share your love of gardening and crafting garden-related decorations. Both the time and price of class gently reminds us to spend our Saturdays doing what is important to us. The "Kid-Sized" version will be about 18" tall, and suitable indoors or outdoors.
