By mid-February, we’re all daydreaming of the first green sprouts pushing through the snow. We invite you to step in out of the cold and join us at our Cottage Street Shop for an afternoon of cozy creativity.
Together, we’ll beat the winter blues by bringing a breath of fresh spring air into your home!
In this "Winter Thaw" session, you’ll learn how to create a living, growing "Spring Nest." We will guide you through the magical process of "forcing" spring favorites—like fragrant hyacinths, cheery crocus, or delicate paperwhites—so you can enjoy their blooms right on your windowsill while the New England winter lingers outside.
What’s Tucked Inside This Workshop:
• Vintage Treasures: We’ve curated a beautiful collection of delicate china teacups and unique vintage vessels for you to choose from.
• Garden Details: You’ll get to tuck in lush forest moss and pussy willow branches
• Step-by-Step Care: Don’t worry if you don’t have a green thumb! We’ll show you exactly how to care for your bulbs so you can watch them grow from tiny sprouts to full, vibrant flowers.
• The Cottage St. Vibe: Enjoy a relaxed Sunday in the heart of the Cultural District.

Let’s bring spring to life together. We can’t wait to see you at the shop!
