I'm Dreaming of a Whittling Christmas
Course Overview
Jake, The Danish Julenisse (Christmas elf) visits the North House campus this December to introduce the Scandinavian art of carving Christmas tree ornaments. Get away from the hustle and bustle of your Christmas rush and enjoy a day in the "hygge" of the Julestue setting of North House (hygge is a Scandinavian expression for ambiance and coziness. It refers to the way a room and the people feel like a hug). Learn how to make Christmas tree decorations for your own tree or as gifts. No previous experience is needed. Enjoy a cup of Christmas tea as you share your Christmas stories or listen to Jake the Julenisse tell stories which will put you in a merry mood for the holidays.
