Flower Demonstration a great success

The seasonal flower demonstration at St. John’s on Tuesday afternoon was a great success. Nearly 40 people attended, they were treated to a glass of fizz on arrival and then settled down to watch Gina and Sharon from Blush Florists in Crosshills demonstrate how to make some beautiful arrangements perfect for the Christmas period. Gina showed us how to create the displays with simple, step by step instructions adding hints and tips on how they could be varied.

Midway through everyone enjoyed tea or coffee and homemade cake and finally all the lovely arrangements were raffled – much to the delight of those who won and the ‘envy’ of those who didn’t!! So many people said how much they had enjoyed the afternoon and that they were going to have a go at creating their own arrangements – especially the Ivy wreaths (so keep a look out for them on the doors of the Cononley village houses)

It was a brilliant afternoon even made £486.40 for church funds!
