The Waltham Garden Club hosted its annual holiday event at the Paine Estate on Sunday, Dec. 7. Club members toured the historic home designed by architect Henry Hobson Richardson. Following a buffet luncheon, guests were treated to a demonstration of flower arranging by Sally Jablonski, owner of Herbert E. Berg Florist in Worcester. Jablonski was among the volunteers who were selected to help decorate the White House for Christmas in 2024.
