Presenter: Mary Roddy, MKR Genealogy

When you start talking about genealogy, how long is it before your sister's eyes glaze over and your brother runs from the room? About 27 seconds? Join the club. But this talk will give you ideas to display your family history knowledge in unusual and compelling ways and soon have your friends and relatives asking you questions about your family. I will present more than a dozen projects which crafters can create at home with easy-to-find supplies using ancestral photos and artifacts. Projects include jewelry (bracelets and necklaces), household and holiday decorations, quilts, shadow boxes, calendars and more. Each of these projects invites questions or comments and gives us an easy way to talk about our ancestors. And when we say our ancestor's names, they will live on. Presentation is suitable for educator portion of conference - I can provide how-to instructions for projects.
