Create traditional cut-out candlestick holders

Join us as we create beautiful cut-out candlestick candelabras. In traditional artmaking, candelabras are important elements that are used to decorate an installation and/or offering during celebrations. They are particularly used during Day of the Dead celebrations to light the road to offerendas or altars. We will learn to shape construction paper in the cut-out technique to form rosettes to be placed as ornaments on a support rod for a candle.
