Market Collective. I’ve you have never been, you should definitely check this out. The show usually runs once per month, but in preparation for Christmas, it is running 3 times this month with a complete new line-up of artists each weekend. That means Calgarians, you have a whole LOT of handmade artisans to choose from over the month to find some unique gifts for family and friends.I am so excited that this great group scored a new venue and it’s an old Ferrari dealership. sweet or what?

I’ll have a wide array of items that make excellent gifts, stocking stuffers, and I can even package some items up for you to make a gift bag. Here are some sneak peaks of products I will be bringing down with me to the Market Collective. I will also be bringing a few products especially for the men on your list such as:

  • Shaving kit (mug, boar bristle brush, shaving soap, cloth bag)
  • ‘Tame your Tiger’ Moustache wax
  • ‘Oh My Guinness Beer & Oats’ Soap
  • and more!

Market Collective, Calgary, Alberta, March17 &18

8 Mar

Hi everyone,

I’m excited to announce that I got selected to be in the Market Collective event in Calgary the weekend of March 17 and 18. St. Patrick’s Day weekend! Perhaps you will find some lucky deals or a clover or two!

In case you haven’t been before, Market Collective is a 2 day affair of crafty-arty goodness! Come and meet local Albertan designers, crafters, artists, musicians, etc. who make, create and design handmade items from clothing to photography to soap and to jewellery, etc. It’s a great way to support local artisans, get ideas for projects, and connect with the handmade community.

I’ve been busy in my studio these past couple of weeks and will be up until the event, to bring you new items I have been working on, such as felted dryer balls, felted soaps, new hand creams, lip butters, soaps, soapnut products, such as my popular laundry detergent, gentle warrior yoga mat spray, veggie wash, and more!

Not only are these events great for supporters of handmade, they are great for the artists themselves, giving us a venue to connect with others, share tips, tricks, and get ideas for each other. I’m looking forward to going to down to partake, so if you live in Calgary come on by!

The information on where and when to find this great event, is in the poster on the right. Hope to see you there!
