Create a Living Centerpiece for your Holiday Table

Are you looking for a more meaningful holiday this year?  Slower? Unique?  Kinder to yourself and the environment?  This year, make a more sustainable choice with a Living Centerpiece for your holiday table. Give this gift as a meaningful hostess surprise or warm the office entry with your elegant arrangement. Register with a friend or your child and create memories together that will last for years to come.

Working with this year’s NEW, reusable, chic, 11”, metal container, beautiful living plants and charming embellishments; your Living Centerpiece makes this holiday season meaningful in many ways. Kirsten Lints, C.P.H of Gardens ALIVE Design will begin with an entertaining explanation of design choices and color combos to help you to create a Living Centerpiece that not only reflects your person style but your unique site.  Take the class one step further and upcycle your Living Centerpiece into your landscape in the spring.  Feel free to bring decorative elements that you would like to have included; a holiday figurine, colored rocks, mossy stems or ribbons can all help you to customize your creation. Be sure and notice that other sizes of metal containers will be available to purchase to complete your collection!

A light offering of local, seasonal treats, including the now-famous apple cider bar, and a handout of healthy, holiday recipes give you more pieces to extend this holiday goodie to others and share how meaningful your holiday has become. The Living Centerpiece Class will allow you to have a moment during the busy holiday season to unwind, enjoy and create.

And one more piece that makes this holiday event
extra special . . .

Gardens ALIVE Design is partnering once again with Acres of Diamonds to bring beauty to homeless women and children! Acres of Diamonds is a local transitional housing program in Duvall focused on helping women step out of homelessness and into the lives they were meant to live. Gardens ALIVE Design has previously donated Landscape Design Services to the gardens at Acres, creating a beautiful place for the residence to call home. Now we’re hoping to take the partnership further by providing scholarships for the Acres women to have the opportunity to participate in the Living Centerpiece Class! The Acres women are creative and love beauty, but rarely are able to take a break to pursue those things on their own. Gifting a woman with a scholarship would be an immense blessing to her and her kids, showing them that life is about more than work and chores. Each woman and child has unique beauty they can express while creating a Living Centerpiece as a keepsake of their time at Acres of Diamonds.

By popular demand, the Living Centerpiece Class is NOW offered with multiple dates and locations!
