Descanso Garden Winter Botanic Bling trunk show Dec. 3

Ring in the holidays with flair! Winter Botanic Bling, Descanso’s trunk show of fabulous jewelry and accessories, returns to the Boddy House from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 3.



Celebrity stylist and TV personality Mark-Alan Harmon will be on hand to provide guidance on gift giving and accessorizing for holiday parties. He will appear 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. Seating for all presentations is limited; RSVP at (818) 952-4391.



Expect fabulous finds, many handmade or one-of-a-kind, perfect for gift giving. A host of independent vendors and craftspeople are expected to participate. Don’t forget to pick up a little special something for yourself!



The Boddy House will be dressed for the occasion! No one knows flowers like Jacob Maarse Florist in Pasadena. The go-to florist will decorate the Boddy in botanical finery for Bling and through the holidays.
