As we finish our previous project we have started a fun winter project based off of a German art form known as Scherenschnitte
"It’s pronounced SHARE-en-shnit-tah and it’s a mouthful of a word for such a simple concept. Literally translated from German to English, it means “scissor-cut.” And cutting paper into decorative patterns is what it’s all about, even though scherenschnitte practitioners frequently use craft knives in addition to, or sometimes instead of, scissors. But for such a simple concept, it’s an art form that has thrived for centuries and taken root in a variety of cultures.
