Mrs. Zahn’s advanced Floral Design students created Thanksgiving floral arrangements, using a cornucopia basket as their container.
Did you know the first cornucopia was actually made from the horn of a goat? The word cornucopia means “horn of plenty.” The students did a wonderful job! Happy Thanksgiving!
