December Update

I did it!  I survived the craft show mania of November 2010!  I wanted a challenge and doing the Make It  Shows in Calgary, Vancouver and Edmonton plus a few dates at the Old Strathcona Farmers' Market definitely was challenging but it was also lots of fun!

I love travelling to shows and I got to share the Vancouver show with my dear friend, Sarah, the queen of monster-making, from Belua Designs.  Luckily, I flew out and skipped the treacherous road trip through the snowy mountain passes.

Vancouverites weren't put off by the fresh snowfall and packed the aisles all weekend.  I also met the wonderful ladies from Vancouver's Scraps:A Green General Store, and have added them to the line-up that carries Sugar Soul hats.  They have a nice collection of adult and kids' hats that are all made from vintage, upcycled and reclaimed fabrics.

...and after!!

Now, I've got just a couple of days left to get ready for my biggest craft show of the year!  The Butterdome Craft Sale, December 9-12th, is open this Thursday & Friday 11-10, Saturday 10-6 and Sunday 10-5.  I'll update this site once I know which aisle my booth is in so you can find me easily : )

Hopefully you'll be able to make the show but just in case, I will also be set up on the main floor of Canada Place next Tuesday to Thursday, December 14-16th, from 9am to 4:30pm for a small craft sale that's part of a United Way fundraiser.

Now, start making that Christmas shopping list!!
