These kids are ready to hang!
A handful of tykes got
crafty at a Park Slope art studio
on Dec. 9, where they created
their own Christmas
and Hanukkah ornaments at
an adorable event that gave
the youngsters a chance to
put their stamp on the holidays,
according to the studio’s
owner.
“The kids are just old
enough to understand what
they’re going to be used for,
and seemed really excited to
hang them up,” said Valeen
Bhat, who runs Private Picassos
at 237 Fifth Ave. between
President and Carroll streets.
The tots, who were mostly
between 3-and-4-years-old, received
hollow bulbs that they
fi lled with colorful doodads
including yarn, feathers, and
pompoms.
The little ornament makers
then topped off their baubles
with glitter, glue, and
other arts-and-crafts accouterments,
while Bhat employed
some tricks of the trade
she learned after more than a
decade in the neighborhood to
ensure the youngsters didn’t
leave behind a merry mess to
clean up.
“We try to set things up
in this workshop so the kids
can have free range of what
they’re doing, but also limit
how much of a mess they can
make,” said Bhat. “We’ve been
around for 13 years, we know
how to deal.”

Rogers worked together to create some new ornaments for their
family collection. Tots as young as 2-years-old came out to handcraft
holiday trinkets with help from their parents and the professionals at
Private Picassos in Park Slope. Kseniya Ivnitskaya and Zoe showed off
