Broken Promise

Sorry I did not post last week as I had promised. Making product for the markets has consumed more of my life that I expected, but that is fine with me, I love it!!

In the mean time, until I have time for a more informative post, check out the new blog for the Vancouver Island Etsy Team that I am apart of. http://vanisle-etsyteam.blogspot.com There are so many great Artists in the group!

A Little Behind

My apologies for slacking on the blog this past month. My Grandma passed away so my mind has been elsewhere. I will be back to regular posting next week, I promise!

In other news, I am happy to announce that as of today our Summer Market Schedule is full! We have booked 14 markets from June until the end of September. Visit the events page on our website to find out where we will be and please make sure to come by and say Hi!

Trend Tuesday - Bold Colour

 It's all about the colour! Bold Colour that is. One day I might be brave enough to pull off one of these looks...


But for now, like most of you, I am more likely to try something a little more subtle. I'm loving the graphic print blue dress below from Gina Michele, which by the way is eco-friendly as it is made from Bamboo Jersey. Pair it with a solid colour bag, some multi-colour baubles and neutral shoes and your set for class or a mid-day coffee date.

Trend Tuesday - Reduce, Reuse & Recycle

Barrel of Monkeys

These days, it seems that there is nothing more trendy than reducing your carbon foot print. Below is a list of some of my favorite items that are helping contribute to a greener world.


 
Reusable produce sacks by ItzaBag
Love In Everything makes her blankets from discontinued fabric sample books!
 
Darling upcycled kids clothing from Banbutsu
 
Make it yourself cup cuddler patterns by Knit n' Kaboodle
Reusable Market bags by Megan Linford

All of this recycling talk is a nice lead up to my current project. Here is a hint of what is coming soon...

Trend Tuesday - Nautical




The Nautical trend has been around for a little while now and it is yet again making a big appearance this Spring/Summer season. Whether it is featured in your clothing or accessories, anything goes. My favorite is adding subtle hints in accessories to an outfit such as a cute anchor necklace or nautical knot bracelet as pictured above.
