Get ready for the Holidays

The Bremen Library is still creating wreaths for the wreath sale this Saturday Nov. 25 at the Bremen Town House. They have a large selection available to choose from. Whether you like a traditional wreath trimmed with pinecones, rose hips and a red bow, or prefer something fancier with a plaid or print bow and decorated with natural materials such as seashells, moss, lichens, holly, dried flower pods, there are many wreaths to choose from. The volunteers who decorate the wreaths approach the task as a creative challenge to use simple materials in imaginative ways. The extra care and thought put into each wreath is apparent in the results. The sale starts at 9 a.m. and we recommend you arrive early for the best selection.
