BOOK YOUR SPOT!

folded flurry

On the seventh day at the Clay House my true love gave to me 7 folded flurries, 6 wooly wreaths, 5 button baubles! 4 nordic stars, 3 sparkling snowflakes, 2 festive flowers and a sleepy sloth for my holiday tree!

These elegant snowflakes are made from folded paper. To be fair, they are a little tricky but their prettiness makes up for that in the end. Why not join Deb to test your patience and dexterity, and make a whole flurry of your own?

A supply list will be emailed to all registered participants before the night of the class.
