One of our local churches has a brilliant fund raiser every year. The churchwarden has a friend who is a florist and she organises a wreath making session. We pay for the session and there is also a raffle. The organiser provides wreath bases, ribbon and a few essentials. Everyone takes greenery and whatever bits and pieces they want to decorate their wreath. The organiser provides wreath bases, ribbon and a few essentials. And somehow we also take nibbles and drinks for a pleasant evening together.
Except that this year I booked my place, paid for it, and then was ill that day. There isn't a loo in that church so I just couldn't go.
But the organiser sent the wreath which the demonstrator had made. How kind is that!!!
How very thoughtful. I love Christmas wreaths. Yours ticks all the boxes
ReplyDeleteLoved your post about wreaths yesterday - except that you said a lot of the things I had been going to say!
DeleteLovely wreath and what a kind gesture.Catriona
ReplyDeleteWasn't it just! I felt very privileged.
DeleteYou are doing well with your letters. I just read U & V and now W. That's one beautiful wreath. I hope you're feeling better.
ReplyDeleteThank you. yes, the problem resolved in a day or so.
DeleteStunning wreath, hope your feeling better.
ReplyDeleteFully recovered. It's something which affects me frequently but I need to be near a loo!
DeleteThat is lovely. I am a bit jealous. We are not allowed them in our apartment - they are considered a fire risk. 😕
ReplyDeleteI'd never thought about a fire risk. I suppose your front door is inside. Still seems a bit OTT!
DeleteThat's a lovely wreath and so nice of the organizer to send it to you. I'm sorry you are ill and hope you'll feel better, soon.
ReplyDeleteThankyou, yes.
DeleteHow a rainstorm of disappointment can turn into a rainbow of joy...
ReplyDeletePoetically put! Thank you!
