We had a wonderful night on Tuesday when Karen Robinson came from Wexford Flower and Garden Club to entertain us with a beautiful floral art demonstration with a Christmas theme. So many arrangements for the raffle afterwards, 14 in all. We had a full house, it was most enjoyable.
Thank you very much Karen.

- A wreath to celebrate the martyr St. Lucia, Scandinavia. She wore a wreath on her head with candles so that she could carry food to Christians in hiding. Geraldine couldn’t help introducing a little red ribbon to remind us that she is from Cork!
- Beautiful arrangement Karen
