Peace Doves

Thanks to BeZen on Etsy for including my Peace Bird Lapel pin in their Treasury today entitled Peace Doves. An early homage to the holiday season coming up, I think it is a truly fitting one this year. We definitely need to think more about Peace and feel it more! Even inside the commercial overdrive of the Christmas season, hopefully there is some meaning found in our consumer rituals. Long Live Etsy and the Handmade!

Peace Bird Lapel Pin - Sterling silver, recycled diamond

This little guy gets lots of attention as it was included a few weeks ago in another Etsy treasury and in another artist's blog. See post from Oct 5 for those links!

Good Times :)

It is a pleasure to report that our show heart + soul designer collective show in Edmonton was a success! It was a finely curated group of talent that I felt priveleged to be in the presence of for that weekend! It's always great spending time with other artists/small business owners as we can chat about common experiences, challenges and benefits of the work that we do!

Here are some pics from the weekend that only begin to show the scope of talent that was showcased!
