CHRISTMAS WREATHS 
Our 1945 Christmas season was a very happy one. We 
were tremendously busy, but were delighted with so many 
repeat orders. Our wreaths went to Victoria, B. C., and Mexico 
City, to the east and middle west, and even to Honolulu. So 
far aS we know, all reached their destination in excellent 
condition. 
We are especially fortunate in being situated in a part 
of the country in which many different types of evergreens 
grow to perfection. By combining sprays of so many different 
textures and color tones, we achieve harmonious and lovely 
wreaths which are interesting on account of the number and 
variety of the materials used, as well as being deliciously 
fragrant, and fairly breathing the spirit of Christmas. We do 
all of this work ourselves, and each wreath is an individual 
creation, differing slightly from all of the others. 
We have developed two types of evergreen wreaths. The 
larger sort is made from rather long sprays of evergreen and 
ornamented with berries and big pine cones. We often add 
spays of plain or variegated holly and berries, as this makes 
them more colorful. A wreath of this type, made on a ten inch 
frame will be about 24 inches wide when finished. They Sell 
for $3,00, $3.50 or $4.00 each. We will be glad to make more 
elaborate ones to order. 
The smaller kind of evergreen wreath is more compactly 
-made of shorter branches, smaller cones and juniper berries, 
so that it is not so large or wide when finished. These are 
very dainty wreaths, suitable either for doorways or for inside’ 
decoration. We sell a great many of the smaller sizes for use 
in aparrtments. We make them in several sizes at $1.50, $2.00, 
$2.50 and up to $4.00. The $1.50 wreath is made on a 6 in. frame 
and when finished is about 10 in. wide. The $2.00-8 in. frame 
makes a 14 in. wreath, and larger sizes are in proportion. 
We can also supply selected Oregon grown holly, well 
berried, at 75c per lb. 
The price of wreaths and holly as quoted does not include 
transportation charges nor the cost of boxes for shipment. 
Boxes are charged at cost, for the large wreaths 25c and 30c. 
For the smaller types, 15c and 20c. 
Orders should be placed by the 1st of December, so that 
we can give them proper, unhurried attention.
