Portobello West!

I was super excited to learn today that I am going to be a vendor in a really cool show called Portobello West! It will be my first time exhibiting at this show and I am excited to meet the other vendors and see what a show in a completely different part of Vancouver will be like. This show takes place at the Creekside Community Centre which is really close to Main st. Science world skytrain station so if you are in the area come on down!

Breakfast Television!

As part of the Make it! promotion a few items from some of the designers that participated in Make It! were featured on Breakfast Television Vancouver! I was so excited as one of my doilies was one of the items featured!!!! Here is the link so you can check it out! There were so many great items at the show it would have been really hard to choose only a few.


Make It!

So this past weekend was the Make It! show in Vancouver. Such great attendance and I got to speak with so many lovely people about my work! I thought I would post some pictures of how the final booth layout ended up turning out.
It was nice because we actually had a place to sit/stand unlike my set up for the Christmas show.




 Some new screen printed pieces!

And the birdies of course!

Simple

I keep trying to remember that sometimes simpler is better while finishing the last pieces for Make It which is happening this weekend! Whew how time flies when you are busy. I also keep trying to remember that sentiment while putting the last finishing touches on the booth (I think it is going to be so much better with this new design). This treasury that I was included in is definitely helping to remind me that simpler really is better. You can see the collection HERE as well!

Holi

I was perusing through my usual list of inspirational blogs this morning when I saw this post on WTF
Holi is a Spring Hindu festival where "To celebrate the beginning of spring, Hindus of all ages and statuses throughout India light bonfires and joyously throw scented powder and perfume at each other.".   It looks like truly one of the most amazing things!
