New to our Special Collections

New to our Special Collections

We have added to our Special Collections with generous funding from the Friends of the Bridgton Library. We now have a Classic Crock Pot, Ball Automatic Jam & Jelly Maker, and Black + Decker One-Touch Chopper available for you to check out. 

All purchased from Hayes True Value, we want you to be able to try before you buy. Our InstantPot and Food Dehydrator are also still available as well.

All of these cooking tools have a one week check out and need to be returned to the Main Circulation Desk. All of the information will be reviewed with you when you check out the item.

And please let us know if you have any requests for cooking tools you would like to try. We have requests for a food mill, coffee grinder, and fermentation crock so far…

More Make Your Own

More Make Your Own

Join us for more holiday Make Your Own crafts on Saturdays here in our Meeting Room.

11/16, 1:00-2:00- Make Your Own Pomander. A pomander is a ball or perforated container of sweet-smelling substances such as herbs and spices, placed in a closet, drawer, or room to perfume the air; a piece of fruit, typically an orange or apple, studded with cloves and hung in a closet by a ribbon for a similar purpose. They are a beautiful way to decorate your home. Cherie Knight will be providing apples, oranges, cloves, and presentation ideas for you to try. 

12/6, 1:00-2:00- Make Your Own Simple Swag. Use some fresh evergreens and decorations to create beautiful swags for door frames, mantles, or windows. Cherie Knight will provide the greens and decorations, as well as decorating ideas for your holiday season.

Funding for these workshops provided by the Friends of the Bridgton Library.

Registration requested, either through the form below, at our Main Circulation Desk, or by calling 647-2472.
