🌱 This Craft is Rooted in Our Story!

At You Are a Gardener®, we believe that every flower we create, every color we choose, and every message we write is a chance to grow something beautiful inside ourselves. Just like in our children’s book and school assemblies, this activity helps gardeners of all ages recognize the flowers (joy and gratitude) in their lives and express them in creative, meaningful ways.

When gardeners craft their wreaths, we can see petals of positivity start to perk up everywhere. These bright blooms become symbols of inner strength, kindness, and growth. 🌸

This spring wreath is more than just a craft—it’s a gardening tool that nurtures confidence, creativity, and calm, just like the 3C’s of Gardening™ we share in our book and programs.

🌸 Let Your Wreath Be a Reminder…

As our wreaths take shape with petals of color and leaves of love, they remind us that beauty can bloom from even the simplest materials—and the same goes for our emotions. When we take the time to reflect, create, and express ourselves, we are actively pulling our weeds and planting new seeds.

Whether displayed in a classroom, office, or home, these spring wreaths are more than decorations—they're daily reminders to notice the flowers in our lives and celebrate the growth within us all.
