The Poland library hosted a crafting event for guests to come and make their own Easter Egg earrings for the upcoming holiday on April 10.
Missy Williams, Poland librarian, provided the different supplies needed to put the earrings together. There were earring hooks, different color and size Swarovski crystals and various types of tools to bend and twist the metal post.
Everyone who attended had the opportunity to make and take home one pair of earrings. Williams led the class by demonstrating how to put the earrings together from start to finish. A website was up on the projector screen, allowing the guests to take down the information if it was something they wanted to do on their own time.
“You can get as creative as you want, depending on what beads you use and how you stack them,” said Williams.
Williams talked about the different earrings she has made for family members during the holidays. She and the guests spent time socializing about different crafts they make at home or with their friends.
Several of the women who attended came as a group of friends. They all said how they enjoy visiting the libraries during their craft programs to learn how to make different things.
The Poland library hosts different crafting programs each month for guests to come and learn new techniques to make their own items at home or share with others.
