Current Obsessions: By the Fire

This weekend the Gardenista editors are stocking the woodpile, making botanical garlands, and dressing the mantel. Here’s a look:

• Spotted on Instagram: an inside look  at Christian Louboutin’s garden via an exclusive exhibition in London by Rake’s Progress. (And check out the upcoming garden-centric events at the 13 Floral Street pop-up here.)
• In New York this weekend? Head to And North’s pop-up on East 20th Street today and tomorrow, featuring festive floral arrangements, goods from favorite makers from the Catskills—plus glögg.
• Sign up now for a wreath workshop by Petal by Pedal (the charming urban florist that delivers bouquets by vintage bicycle), in Brooklyn next Saturday.
• In search of gifts for the gardener in your life? Look no further: We’ve got Gifts for the Instagram Floral Arranger, the Best Books for Gardeners, the Best Books (and More) for the Botanically Minded Cook and Mixologist, plus our favorite garden journals.
• How to care for your Christmas tree, courtesy of The Old Farmer’s Almanac.
