Jeyzki or "jezyk" paper star ornaments are traditional holiday decorations made in Poland. These intricate ornaments are also known as Polish Porcupines, hedgehogs, or paper star urchins. Whatever you call these spiky beauties, they are super fun to make. Use them to decorate your Christmas tree, create many to string together as garland, or just hang them around your home for year round whimsy!

Learn how to layer, fold, and assemble colorful paper to celebrate the holiday season with your POST pals! In this hands-on workshop, Julie will teach you the traditional techniques for creating jezyki using basic materials so that you’ll be inspired to make them at home with family and friends. 

All materials will be provided.
