BlueGrass Roots & Shoots goes to Holiday-Go-Round!

Last Saturday's been busy!

You may have heard of the Explorium's Museum-Go-Round. The Holiday-Go-Round is a small-scale, indoor, fall/winter version of the Museum-Go-Round - a venue for local, young (18 and under) artists to sell and showcase their works. BlueGrass Roots & Shoots held a 6' table for the crafts of our entire group. We had a very crowded space, because we've been working for over a month preparing things to sell!

Before the Holiday-Go-Round: Preparing Crafts

Working on decoupaged boxes


Cupcake candles colored with recycled crayons


Making Christmas ornaments


Making drawings to go on the covers of cards


Decorating purses recycled out of wool sweaters from Goodwill
