The design committee for the McCracken County Fair Flower
Show, "SEE BLUE," is planning a series of three workshops on floral
design. The first one will be April 27,
1:00 p.m., at the
McCracken County Extension office. Other sessions will be on May 11 and June
8.On April 27, Sally Wilkins, National Garden Clubs Certified Flower Show Judge, will demonstrate making two different designs featured at this year's show, Illuminary and Pot-et-Fleur.
Illuminary designs are
creative, abstract designs
incorporating lights for special effect.
In the 2015 flower show, the class is titled "Blue Moon of
Kentucky." Pot-et-Fleur designs are
more traditional and combine rooted and cut flowers, as in the prize-winning
design pictured above. This year's class is called "Blue Oasis."
Anyone interested in learning more about floral design is invited to attend these
sessions. One need not be committed
to entering design competition at the
fair.
