Latvian Christmas Traditions (ECHO)
Channel: Alise Vitola
Date: 14/12/2022

In this webinar we  introduce Latvian Christmas traditions and have a creative workshop where we jointly make puzurs. It's an octahedron - 12 straws strung together to symbolically represent a year with 12 months, making it one of the oldest winter solstice ornaments, decorating homes long before the Christmas tree. Working language - English and Latvian with English translation.

For the creative workshop you will need:
- 12 paper straws (any length and colour)
- long needle
- thread (16 times x length of one straw)
- ribbons, feathers or other decorations
