Immerse yourself in the soothing rhythm of creativity and delve into the world of traditional straw art. In this special Sun/Star Edition of SODAI – Straw, Form and Wind, we'll craft an exquisite ornament inspired by one of the oldest symbols in Baltic folk culture: the sun. ☀️

Constructed from simple natural straw, these radiant forms symbolize light, vitality, and the cyclical essence of life. Unlike the hanging designs of traditional Sodai, the straw sun embodies a quiet beauty and a connection to nature that have made straw craftsmanship a beloved heritage through generations.

In this workshop, you'll learn how to prepare, shape, and assemble straw into your very own sun or star ornament. Each piece comes together harmoniously, transforming humble materials into a radiant creation. Through this hands-on experience, discover how focused attention and patience can transform simple actions into a reflective and fulfilling creative journey.

You’ll master essential crafting techniques while allowing yourself the chance to slow down and create with intention. Each step encourages mindfulness, guiding your mind to find peace as your ornament gradually takes shape.

By the end of the workshop, you will walk away with a beautiful, handmade straw sun or star, embracing both cultural heritage and your unique creativity! 🎨✨
