Spring is hiding right around the corner, but after this class students will feel like it's already arrived! Join Twisted Stem Owner/Designer for his class, Building a Bountiful Basket of Spring on Thursday Feb. 24 from 6-8 p.m. Following a demonstration, students will build their own moss covered basket complete with a pussy willow handle. Whether this later becomes a St. Pat's masterpiece or refilled in April as an Easter showpiece, this technique is quite versatile throughout the year. Students will learn the proper mechanics to make their baskets strong and then fill them up with a tumbling mixture of spring blooms are are sure to delight. Students should bring a pocket or paring knife, a wire cutter and pruning clippers. The class costs $60 and space is limited so register soon! For more information or to register, call 815-459-9770.
