Country Christmas Ornament
This is a “Take Home a Program” from MAR, taught to us by our Region Rep, Heather. Get an early start on next Christmas or change up the colors for a different holiday (St. Patrick's Day, Easter, Independence Day...).
​
Ornaments not your thing? Make yourself a lovely scissors fob!
​
There is no fee for this class, and sign-up is not necessary. Gather the materials you need (use your own stash) and bring your questions to the March meeting.
​
