The Bremen Library will be having its annual Christmas wreath sale on Saturday, November 16,  from 9:00 AM to Noon at the Bremen Townhouse, next to the Bremen Firehouse on Route 32 in Bremen, and at the CLC  YMCA Holiday Bazaar & Craft Show in Damariscotta from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM.  All profits from the sale benefit the Bremen Library. 

Each balsam wreath is uniquely handcrafted by volunteers with a variety of embellishments that include all-weather bows and a selection of natural decorations such as pinecones, seed pods, lichen, birch bark, dried flowers, and seashells. Wreathes are suitable for indoor or outdoor use.  Decorated wreathes are priced from $25.00 to $40.00, depending on bows and decorations.  Undecorated wreathes are $13.00, and wreathes decorated only with plain velvet bows are $16.00.

Volunteers will be on hand at both locations to assist buyers in selecting the perfect wreath.  These attractive and well priced wreathes are always a popular purchase for holiday shoppers. 

Boxes will be available for purchase at the sale for your shipping needs.  Orders to be shipped must be placed by November 16.  Order forms are available at the Bremen Library or on line at bremen@bremen.lib.me.us.  The Bremen Library phone number is 207-529-5572.
