I was passed this by a fellow artisan and having sat in my show booth now for 31 years I’ve heard these comments a million times!!!!!!! This is a ‘cuuuute’ video. The women in this video must be seasoned artisans and have done lots of craft shows themselves. Having been on the scene a long…
Ten thirty am and not dressed (again!), answering email, uploading photos of the hat making I did the other day, resizing photos for a web site I build, now I have to place them and upload. Laying out my hat. A studio tour application to drop off (when I get the accompanying photos edited and…
Well, it’s been a busy few weeks since I returned from PEI. There was a workshop at Frontenac Secondary School that was very interesting as I have not worked solely with teenagers before and it was a unique experience! From deciphering teen talk & slang to figuring out what each individual was really interested in….

I’m so happy about our latest Artists Round Table, especially as I actually got it together to send out the emails in time before I was in Fanfayr Arts and Crafts show all weekend (though I did find out I could access the internet on my iPad all weekend in Confederation Basin!!!) I decided to…
Just got back from the Just for Us Originals show and sale of wearables. It was a good weekend, the weather was cooperative in that it was warm and sunny… not keeping women home. The venue – the Mississauga Living Arts Centre – was great and we set up in the foyer/atrium…. three story high…
