"Floral Craft"
Jill Fox, the president of the club
will do a demo of a fall silk flower table arrangement. This is a
craft workshop. Everyone is to bring their own container, silk
flowers, and wire cuttings. Glue glues, dry oasis, moss, and some
flowers and picks will be available. The fee is $5 at the door.
You need to inform Jill and Eileen if you are going to do this. We
need to have a count for set-up at the library.
