This weekend I will be at the Fairy
Lake Artisans Festival in Newmarket. The show runs from 10:00 – 5:00 on
Saturday and Sunday. There will be lots of artisans there with a large variety
of handmade and artisan designed products and handmade foods.
The festival is held in the lovely
Wesley Brooks Conservation Area in the heart of town. It’s a lovely setting
with picnic areas and play park for the little ones. Come out for an enjoyable
family outing and shopping.
Here’s a sample of one of the
products I’ll be bringing. Check out the last few postings. I’ll have those
items there too.

| Coral Squiggles Necklace (Sold) |
The focal is a square porcelain
charm by Marsha Neal, with a coral squiggle pattern, and is glazed in a
combination of blue, gold and brown glazes. The focal pendant is attached with
waxed cotton cords in copper and dark green, sitting immediately below 2
ceramic beads by Gaea Cannaday, glazed in complementary colours. Strung along
the waxed cord is a ceramic charm with a seashell, also by Gaea, in brown and
clear glazes. Riverstone chips and freshwater pearls dyed deep coffee help call
out the Tide Pools interpretation of the necklace, as does the antiqued brass
starflower toggle that finishes the necklace.
I have been really enjoying a more
organic, somewhat rustic bohemian approach to my designs lately and would be
interested in hearing your opinions on this style. Do let me know.
