Start a Holiday Tradition at the Brookfield Craft Center

Celebrate the Holidays with Brookfield Craft Center

As a child my mother and I would bundle up in our warmest clothing and wait for

the bus to Bridgeport to Christmas shop. The stores were lit with twinkling lights

and holiday carols would be playing in all of the stores. After filling our arms

 with packages we would head to the Woolworth's lunch counter, where I was allowed

to pick one balloon which hung just out of my reach. Inside would be a number and

that is what we would pay for a banana split which we shared.

I am honoring my delightful memory this Sat and Sat, December 7 and 8. The fused

pendants pictured above as well as a few earrings will be on our holiday tree along

with a bunch of balloons. You will be able to choose a balloon and the price inside

it will be what you will pay for the piece of jewelry you choose. The prices will

range from $1 to $10. The value of the work ranges from $15 to $22!  Please join

 me in celebrating the Holiday season!  Or perhaps bring your child and create your

own delightful memory!

Wishing you a warm and memorable Holiday Season!
