Illustrator: Selena Wong

Each craft show, I'm very fortunate to meet other amazing crafters who are very creative, talented and have that entrepreneurial spirit. I was lucky to share a table space at City of Craft with illustrator and local Toronto artist, Selena Wong. Her obsession with bunnies is infectious.

Her pieces are tiny, precious, detailed works of art focused around her pet dwarf Netherland rabbit. The illustration zines she makes are the size of matchbooks and her bunny magnets are equally as small.

I was lucky to take home some magnets and 2 illustrations from Selena that are now hanging in my studio. You can purchase some of her work in her Etsy shop.

Happy Holidays

This past month has been a whirlwind of Craft Shows, three weekends in a row! Somehow I managed to survive traveling back and forth from Montreal to Toronto, trying to restock supplies week after week and handling online orders.

Last year, our holidays were spent on a plane traveling from several cities; Vancouver, Singapore and Arizona. This year, it's nice to take a a little breather to regroup and focus.

I hope everyone is having an amazing holiday!

Sparkle and Shine

The holiday season always gets me in the mood for a bit of shine. Images of sequins and sparkle I've been collecting on my pinboards. Are you following me yet?

Souk @ Sat

Last weekend I participated in the Souk@Sat, a highly curated Trunk Show event in Montreal. It was extremely busy for the whole weekend with Friday and Saturday being the busiest days. People were lined outside the door in the morning just waiting to come in. I shared my table with Mariane Fabrique, who makes beautiful silver geometric jewelry with subtle pops of colour.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by my booth.
