Here are pics of a few pieces I finished just before the Holidays. I always enjoy experimenting with needle felting! You can find them on our online shop.
Here are a few new pieces I’ve made in the last couple months. Some are available here.

Just waiting for the masses to descend 😉 – so thought I’d write a post. We’re holding these little gatherings once a month now; they are super fun. Here are a few picks:
Miss Bunny Drummond awaits the pleasure of company.
Butter tarts, mincemeat tarts and lemon sugar cookies; I haven’t quite let go of the festive season!
Some of my Firehorse Designs jewellery.
Some of GJ’s work, Teds and Objets.
We’re having a little jewellery sale. Find the shop, Avant Crossing Guard, here. The shop facebook page is here. The shop tumblr blog is here.
Two new necklaces recently completed:
I went a little crazy making art cards last week in anticipation of our upcoming open studio this saturday. I still have a few more ideas, but should probably turn my attention to Holiday themes for the next few months.
It’s been a busy few months. In June, we worked with our friends artist Gareth Gaudin and Alison at Dales Gallery to create a show of Gareth’s original drawings from the graphic novel Silence Is A Song I Know All The Words To, which is a collaboration with spoken-word poet Shane Koyczan. The original drawings are now available for purchase here. I’ve been making a lot of new jewellery; some goes up on the online store, some to Eclectic Gallery in Oak Bay, and some we keep around for our open studios which we’ve been having about once a month. GJ’s been very prolific making sculpture. He’s working on a figurative piece today and has two new kinetic pieces, one of which you can see in action here. GJ also submitted recently to Dug North: The Automata Blog and had one of his kinetic pieces featured; very exciting!
