In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn the techniques used to construct and decorate this traditional holiday ornament using fragrant greens and festive accents. Guided step-by-step by an expert instructor, you’ll craft your own unique design to hang on a porch, in an entryway, or as a focal point in your holiday decorating.
