Refreshing winter outdoor decor

Floral designer Joanne Weber decorates her rural home with boughs, bows and a fresh twist of citrus Produced by Leah Weber; Photos by Donna Griffith

##Create an Artful Scene## Weber used fresh cedar boughs and yellow willow branches collected from Eastcliff’s 10 acres of forest to fashion a rustic wreath that really makes a statement against the stark white of the garage door. She added her ironwork pieces and everyday objects to create a subtle yet pleasing vignette. **To dress her Ontario farmhouse for the holidays, Joanne Weber (and her crew Jane Beattie and Jeff Davis of Davishill Nursery) created a strong focal point at the front entry with a pair of classic urns filled with evergreen boughs, tall yellow willow branches and citrus fruit, then added a matching swag. Weber chose a bright palette because it “pops against the home’s dark facade.”**
