Andover Garden Club Presents Floral Design by Maureen Christmas
Internationally Acclaimed Designer Will Demonstrate Fall and Winter Arrangements
On Tuesday, November 2, 2021, award-winning National Garden Club Master Flower Show Judge Maureen Christmas will create arrangements of varied textures and colors to celebrate the fall and the winter holidays. The program will offer something for all levels of designers, including eco-friendly techniques and suggestions for using horticulture from home gardens.
An internationally known floral designer and avid gardener, Christmas is the proprietor of Floral Notes of Acton, Massachusetts. Her flower-show judging, competition experience, work to achieve European Masters Certification, and status as a Chapel Designer have given her a deep understanding of design, enhanced by the European style. She has passed the rigorous Professional Florist Design Evaluation, achieving a score that earned her induction into the American Institute of Floral Designers.
Christmas has won numerous awards for her designs in flower shows, including a Bronze Award in the Fusion Flower International Designer of the Year Competition. Her designs have been featured in various publications, including on the cover of the National Garden Club’s “Vision of Beauty” calendar. A career highlight was creating dramatically large arrangements for His Holiness, the Dali Lama, at the Wang Center in 2014.
