Christmas at the garden centre (Pics)

[Snowwark]

A local garden centre had their 3rd annual Christmas Open House last night.

An evening of free wine, cheese, and baked goods. Decorating demonstrations, carolling, and their showroom transformed into a Christmas Wonderland.

The place was packed with people, and the decorating beautiful, if not a bit overwhelming!

We made sure we visited the food and beverage table (huge lineup), but didn't buy one thing!! So unlike me....lol.

A few pics!

Thanks, Kim.
I always love your holiday pics. I like the Santa, he looks jolly. Sounds like a fun night out. You didn't buy anything? Maybe it's too early. Bet you got a lot of ideas for holiday decorating.

We planted some more bulbs this weekend and hopefully I'll get the rest in before TG:> It's getting very cold here. Saturday it was 44 degrees for DS's soccer game. I ran (as their coach) more in one day than I have all season just to keep warm.



AC, I had to read your post twice. I was looking for the goldfish tree and couldn't find it, Duh, my brain is still frozen.

Very pretty. Does anyone really fill their tree that full?

 

[Snowwark]

I like the goldfish tree best, too!

I don't fill my tree that full, but when I see them done this way I think they look beautiful!

I do agonize over the placement of every single ornament though...lol.

A goldfish tree!!!!! now there's an idea..a good friend works for pepperidge farm, we call him the goldfish man.

I have to say that I would have a hard time deciding between the 3 trees, they are all so beautiful. Is that a little snowman all bundled up...he's adorable.

 

[Snowwark]

Yes it is, Julie. He's cute isn't he?

Speaking of gold fish trees, up at the cottage there's a tree you pass on your way into town, that's covered with old shoes. Running shoes, slippers, boots, a shoe tree! It's been that way for years. There used to be a tree that had lots of those little, yellow, lemon shaped lemon juice containers hanging from it, a lemon tree.

Wow those trees are stunning!

My favourite is the silver and mauve? tree.

Kim which nursery are they at?

LOL I remember that shoe tree...........we used to see it on our way up to our trailer.

Thanks for sharing these.....they are all lovely.

Kim, a shoe tree, SLOL! Lemon tree!!! .. now that's garden art!

 

[Snowwark]

Great to see you here, sammi!

The trees are at Garden Gallery in Burlington.

I think I'm ready to go back and actually buy something now!
