Toast to an Early Spring in Calgary
Feb 1, 2016, 16:15 PM
Ahead of the upcoming Calgary Home + Garden Show, Calgary’s top
media personalities, bloggers & designers gathered last week for a modern
garden party and a sneak peek at this year’s show, taking place from February
25-28, 2016 at the BMO Centre and Stampede Park.
Nearly 50 stylish guests were transported to warmer days
inside Last
Best Brewing and Distilling with fresh, handcrafted beers and bites,
while the lovely ladies of Amborella Floral Studio welcomed guests with a
whimsical floral crown workshop. Be sure to catch Amborella’s floral expert
Misha White on the Home + Garden Stage Thursday, February 25 at 5PM, or stop by
the Amborella Flower Market in Hall E to pick up a few blooms, or take an
impromptu flower arranging workshop.

Adorned with delicate buds and blooms, guests then had the
chance to cozy up in the Floral Photo Lounge to snap a selfie. Designed by
local DIY expert Lacey Haskell of Feathering My Nest, the lounge featured
vibrant natural textures, hanging moss and fern balls, touches of gold and
green, and one-of-a-kind vintage pieces including a stunning green velvet chair
from Orange
Trunk Rentals.

To top it all off, Blue Grass Nursery gave our YYC urbanites a
chance to make their own hanging terrarium. Attendees put their green thumbs to
work, creatively combining tiny succulents, bright mosses, soft sands and
beachy pieces of wood to create a mini-indoor garden. Stop by Blue Grass’ Living Green
Workshops, taking place all show long in the Corral, to make your
own terrarium or shadow box planter!
