Lavender Wands

Lavender wands are a colonial craft that were made to hang in closets to repel moths and to take away the mustiness of a log cabin! Today people use this decorative art on kitchen counter tops, desks, or in dressers to release the lovely fragrance in your home. Cut your own fresh lavender from our fields and we will provide the ribbon and instruction to weave a cheerful wand! We would love for you to join us to learn how to make this unique craft!   The current available classes are:

Wednesday & Friday, June 12 & 14, 1:00 PM

Lavender Wreaths

Lavender wreaths are a simple and beautiful way to bring a touch of lavender into your own home! In this more advanced craft class you will learn how to make a 6” heart shaped or circular wreath. We provide the freshly cut lavender from our fields while you enjoy the creative process of making a wreath. Our wreath class typically lasts 2 hours with a class limit of 6 people so you receive individual attention.  You will leave with a decorative fresh lavender wreath to enjoy for years to come as a dried wreath!
