Moravian Star Christmas Ornament Workshop
Saturday, December 12th, 1:00-3:00 pm
Instructor: Mary Ann Haagen
Join artist and instructor Mary Ann Haagen for a hands-on workshop creating beautiful Moravian star Christmas ornaments! Learn the traditional paper-folding and weaving technique used to make these intricate, multi-pointed stars, which have long been associated with the Advent and Christmas seasons.
Made from four identical paper strips, these three-dimensional stars are a festive way to add handmade charm to your holiday decorations. Create ornaments to hang on your Christmas tree, give as thoughtful gifts, or display throughout your home.
