birch bark ornaments

Tuesday, December 3rd | 6 PM | Our Lady of the Snows | $5 | Sign-up Required

Come learn to weave a beautiful ornament or pendant from the bark of the White Paper Birch tree! Using simply our hands and thin strips of birch bark salvaged from a local arborist, we will learn to twist and weave a beautiful star. Participants will leave with their own finished ornaments as well as the skills to weave their own from other materials they might salvage locally themselves!
