Beeswax Ornaments Demo

Mind Our Beeswax
Theresa Kramer and her husband are scheduled for an Ohio Arts and Crafts demonstration in the Buggy Barn at Lehman’s this Saturday.  I asked her to share with us a little about what she does so Theresa wrote:  
My craft of making beeswax ornaments dates back to the sixteenth century.  German bakers started saving their bits of beeswax by melting it and pouring it in their cookie and candy molds.  They then used the decorations on their Christmas trees. German immigrants brought this art form to eastern Pennsylvania in the late seventeenth century.  I continue the tradition today.  I work out of my home and do local art and craft fairs.  I also have a web site:  www.mindourbeeswax.com.  The photo is of me and my husband Jim at Yankee Peddler last month.
This demo is part of an ongoing series of arts and crafts demos that will be at the store in the Buggy Barn.  To see future demos and other events go to the Events link at the top of this page.
