Can’t wait for my first show of the year!!

Our next vendor featured in our spotlight is Kara Lynn Design!

Kara Lynn is an artist and children’s wear designer in St. John’s, working out of the Quidi Vidi Artisan Studios. For her designs, Kara finds inspiration and comfort in the strong craft and heritage preservation of this province. Upon her move from Ontario to Newfoundland, Kara found that same love of heritage everywhere, and now blends the traditional designs from her life with the culture she has become a part of.

Stay tuned for more vendors you’ll get to visit when you this July 14th to 17th!

2021 had me in a bit of a stasis.

But December found a new job, and a switch to online sales.

Sometimes you can't see growth coming and it surprises you.

I hope 2022 is full of growth and positive surprise for us all.

Don't forget a card when someone's having a baby!

Cards are great because they are easy to keep as a memento, I have a scrapbook of the cards my parents received when I was born. It's amazing to see how supportive and loving their family and friends were when I was born.

You can never have enough scrunchies.

Especially if you have a pet that steals them.

Or your long hair keeps hitting your baby in the face.

My two favourite reasons people have mentioned when picking up new scrunchies!
