Longnor Well Dressing 2022...the Professionals

Longnor's 2022 design is for the 150th anniversary of the village school...

                    Helen and Anne putting in the black grass for the blackboard...very fiddly!

My favourite bits were the school roof and the children's hairstyles...lovely texture from grass, seeds and weed heads! The tiny contribution I made took 4 hours-  at the bottom of the blackboard!!

Sledge came on useful for gathered foliage...
