HOUGHTON -- Holiday shopping continued after Black Friday on Saturday in the Keewenaw.

The second annual Gifts and Crafts Bazaar was held at the Bluffs Adult Care Center in Houghton.

The craft show was full of people from early in the morning looking for good deals on homemade items.

There were 22 vendors and lots of crafts like apparel, jewelry, candles, and bags.

"I'm just excited for everybody in the community to be able to feature their local crafts or home based business and for the community to enjoy what we have to offer," said Jessica Gostlin, a coordinator.

All the funds raised will be donated to a local girl with a rare brain tumor.
