Learn to make wood shaving ornaments (lastu koriste). The technique is similar to paper quilling. Students will learn how to control the wood shavings so they can be curled and glued into stable decorative ornaments. Students will build at least one ornament during the class and leave with enough shavings to make more at home. No experience necessary. Open to students ages 18 and up. Requires some hand dexterity.
