In true Vashon style, they came out of their houses, left their gardens, stumbled to town and showed up at our "Bling the Boots" art party.Some people jumped right in. Others were sort of confused and needed some urging. But, boy! Did they deliver!
We tried to keep the hot glue gun burns to a minimum as it was an all ages event.
We took over the big excellent craft table at Books by the Way. Jenni was kind enough to host the event and get us set up.
I had been gathering bling for weeks.
Many trips to grannies for wacky little crafty do-dads to glue onto boots; lace, electrical tape, fringe, beads, buttons.
Mission accomplished.
I gathered bags of bugs and gems and frogs and flowers all just looking for a new home on the art boots islanders created for the much anticipated Rubber Boot Fashion Show April 9th at The Red Bicycle, 8:00 - 11:00.
Ok, people! There is still plenty of time to create your own masterpiece and support BARC all in one fell swoop!
We had so much fun, plus there were a few people who couldn't make it so we're going to do another one, April 6th, 12-2 at Books by the Way.
This has been such a fun and motivating event to work on. The buzz is happening and people are jumping on the bandwagon!
How about you!?
