Wreath Making and Other Holiday Crafts

Once again we'll be turning the Foster Center at Diamond Lake into a holiday workshop! Try your hand at a variety of holiday crafts including evergreen wreaths, ornaments made with natural materials, upcycled cards and envelopes, and farmhouse style paper garlands. 

If you'd like to make a wreath we will provide evergreen boughs, natural seed heads, and wreath frames (8" or 14" diameter), wire, and tools (gloves, pruners, pliers etc.). If you would like to reuse an wreath frame you already have at home, you would be more than welcome to bring it. You may also bring any ribbons, bows, dried flowers, or other embellishments you might want for your wreath. 

RSVP apprecieated! 

When you RSVP please let Amy know how many in your group want to make wreaths so we can be sure to have plenty of supplies!

Homeschool and Preschool Nature Explorers

We'll meet up twice a month to talk about a seasonal nature topic, and hike, play a game, or do a craft. Lessons are designed for Pre-K through 5th grade, but learners of all ages (from baby siblings to grandparents!) are welcome. We'll meet at the main shelter whenever weather permits, but as it cools down this fall look for a reminder text from Amy on Mondays that will tell the location and topic for Tuesday's program.  Call Amy to get added to the list to receive texts this year. 

Please note we will not meet Dec 14th.
