GSE Community Cultural Programme: The Art of Celebration - Crafting A Christmas Bauble

The Art Of Celebration Crafting A Christmas Bauble

There are many festivals of light at this time of year, and many have particular traditions associated with them. One of the traditions associated with Christmas in the UK, is decorating the home and the Christmas tree in preparation for the celebrations.  Whether you are celebrating Christmas or any other tradition or festival of light, a brightly coloured bauble can be adapted to suit the occasion and is sure to add some joy to the festivities.  

Join Karen Walshe who will be crafting a Christmas bauble and sharing how she will be preparing for the holidays.
