The reason we chose Suncatchers for this introductory workshop is not only for their visual appeal but also for the beautiful symbolism they carry: * Origins and Meaning: Suncatchers originally come from Native American cultures, who believed these ornaments could capture the sun's energy and blessings, bringing good luck and dispelling negative emotions. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54941056675_f6e754d290_m.jpg * Healing and Hope: Every Suncatcher symbolizes light and hope. The process of creating one by hand is also a form of self-healing, allowing you to infuse the piece with these positive meanings. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54806606813_6789d52c22_m.jpg All materials and tools are prepared, making it easy for even beginners to get started.
