Opening Tomorrow!

The Ontario Crafts Council Holiday Pop-Up Shop officially begins on Friday, running until Christmas Eve, but there's an opening preview event tomorrow evening (that's Thursday, Dec. 5), from 6:30-9:30pm at 990 Queen St. West.  There are about 30 participating makers, and I'm sure some of us will be there in person. 

Holiday Events

Updated my website yesterday with upcoming events.  There are 3 things coming up:

- I will be showing a few pieces in Port Credit's Guilty Dog Cafe in December & January
- My silk clutches will be available over the holiday season (starting soon), in the Port Credit Emporium
- Additional silk clutches will be available during the Ontario Crafts Council's Holiday Pop-up Craft Shop in their Queen Street gallery, Dec. 6-24

Greetings!

Sorry it's been almost a month since I updated.  I've been working on adding and reorganizing my website content, gardening, cooking, watching soccer, and so on.  I've decided to add thin cord straps to my silk clutches, so I am working on those.  The MARTY Awards were handed out on May 9th, and you may remember I was nominated in the Creative Community category - I'm happy to tell you I received an honourable mention!  I also attended, and donated a silk clutch to, the Ontario Crafts Council's Maker Shaker cocktail party & silent auction fundraiser, a social media workshop, and hope to check out the Textile Museum's yardage sale this weekend. 

I have also been watching the spring birds, and have started a personal blog on that subject, so if you're interested in casual birdwatching, gardening, backyard wildlife, and such, you should follow!  Visit A Year of Birds. 

Nine days to OOAK!

Just nine days to go until One of a Kind Toronto starts!  Thanks to the Mississauga Arts Council, Ontario Crafts Council, and Sheridan Alumni for mentioning me/the show in their e-newsletters!

Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone!

Monday Maker

The Ontario Crafts Council's Facebook page is featuring my work as their 'Monday Maker' today, based on my Portfolio of Makers profile on their website.  You can also see more of my work and info about me on my own website. 

February!

Have a look at this link - it's one of the things I've been putting together recently. The Ontario Crafts Council's 'Portfolio of Makers' features members' portfolios on its website.
