SOME OF THE ARTIFACTS

SOME OF THE ARTIFACTS in the Brownsburg Museum’s new “Interwoven” exhibit include houseware and personal items informally known as “Make-do’s.” These items would have been cast away but could be retrieved by enslaved persons, repaired, and used for everyday or Sunday best. Pictured are (top) a hat pin holder with a repurposed glass base, (middle) a wine glass top fitted with a tin base, and (bottom) an oil lamp made from a repurposed bottle.
