Danish Stars have been adding to the handcrafted hygge of Danish Christmases for generations. They are known by many other names - Nordic Stars, Christmas Stars, Froebel Stars - these beloved seasonal decorations are three-dimensional masterpieces that are surprisingly simple to construct. This is the perfect opportunity to learn how to make your own! Danish American instructor Christine Beaulieu will provide you with step-by-step instruction on how to turn simple strips of colorful paper into a beautiful 16-pointed star, and enough materials will be provided for you to make at least 5 stars with which to decorate your home or give away as gifts this season. Once you're done...you will want to go home and make even more!
Thank you to our sponsor, Scan Design Foundation.
Meet your instructor:
Christine Beaulieu’s Danish heritage brought her into the Nordic Northwest community shortly after she came to Portland for college, and one of her favorite ways of being involved in the Nordic community here has been growing the Flower Area at the Oregon Midsummer Festival, with a personal mission of making sure every guest who attends and wants to make a flower crown is able to do so.
