Largs Brownies enjoyed their last meeting, before breaking up for the Summer, with Largs & District Horticultural Society and Largs Flower Club creating “A Moment of Magic” to take home with them.

The flower arrangement each Brownie made, under the direction of Sheila Barr, was a demontration of Largs Flower Show’s Junior Decorative section, introduced last year.

Creating the “Moment of Magic” the Brownies had fun decorating a pointed vase with star paper, ribbon, card, wool and shells then filled the vase with an arrangement of foliage and flowers and decorated twigg which they proudly displayed before taking them home. All the materials were provided by Horticultural Society and Flower Club.

The Junior Decorative Section “A Moment of Magic” is open to children aged between 8 and 16 years. Vases and worksheets, etc are available from Largs Horticultural Secretary by phoning 01475689423.
