A long time ago, in rural Poland, women would gather in their humble homes to create decorations for Christmas or other significant events. They used whatever they could find around their homes, fields, gardens, and forests—straw, peas, beans, feathers, upcycled wool from old skirts, and eventually, paper. These gatherings weren’t just about crafting ornaments; they were a way to bring friends and family together and pass down skills to the next generation. They sang, shared stories, exchanged recipes (and a bit of gossip), and fostered a strong sense of community.

That’s why Monia, the owner of Petals & Berry, invites you to join one of her workshops. You'll not only learn a new skill but also if you'd like, have the chance to share your own stories. We hope to see you there!
