Home Spun Hamilton

Looking for another chance to shop local and support Hamilton?

Join Home Spun Hamilton and other small artisan businesses on Satirday, September 28th during the Craft Crawl. We'll be set up on Edinburgh and Britannia, on the east side of Ottawa Street, to the end of the parking lot from 10 am to 4 pm.

This is a great opportunity to meet the community and support the businesses on and around Ottawa Street.

Tomorrow is Friday the 13th and in Ontario, that sort of leads to two camps...

Will you be heading to Port Dover for the motorcycle rally? 🏍 Or will you be skipping sidewalk cracks as you count superstitions? 🐈‍⬛

No matter how you groove on the 13th, there's a handbag for that ;)

These Bowler Style bags feature quilted cotton fronts, with black pleather back and sides. Measures 18" wide, 8" tall and 4" deep. Comfortable 23" pleather handles, with metal hardware. Liner features a convient pocket.

Lightweight design for comfortable wear.

Only $20 each.

Pin-Ups has a peach-pink alligator skin patterned lining with rose gold accents.
Hidden Demask has a blood splatter lining, with dark hidden details in the damask print.

Cute little custom sleep mask.
Patterned cotton outer with a fluffy fleece lining. Soft, light reducing but breathable. Secured with an elastic strap. Machine washable, so no fear if it gets tossed in with the sheets!
