Christmas Wreath Making at The Grand, Images by Jonny Draper

The Grand in St Annes was the setting for our second 2010 Christmas Wreath Making Workshop, this was an evening event hosted by the very wonderful Mandy Webb, and was yet again a complete sell out, but hey what can you expect when, you've got some fabulous door wreaths to be created and The Grand's world famous Tapas on offer too!!!Throughout these workshops we've had the most fabulous selection of Christmas evergreens to work with and the smell was just so nostalgic
There was a plethora of beautiful ladies there for the intrepid Jonny Draper to photograph Our very own completely fabulous Sally Wilkinson was on hand throughout the evening, advising and generally directing the work on the back row.
Love the polka dot ribbon

Aprons and rubber gloves were essential

Lots of bubbles


Jason refining Maggie's scissor technique
The finishing touches, it was all getting quite serious...
The wonderful "Brothers of Swing" provided some much needed relief......they were as always utterly brilliant
This fabulous table design was our raffle prize (In aid of Trinity Hospice) and many thanks for the generosity of our ladies

In the interests of fair play, the individual wreaths and their designers shots will be here to vote on, on Friday together with all of the wonderful wreath makers from the rest of the workshops.
