Greetings Faithful followers! I am quite excited to bring you the following photos taken literally minutes ago! Like many of you, I try to make as few stops as possible during my holiday shopping sojourn. Searching for just the right items (unique, affordable, interesting) can be a tall order. Well, not today OR tomorrow! Just visit the North Market Holiday Open House and Craft Extravganza. Local residents in Columbus can tell you how scrumptious the food offerings are within this unassuming building. The crowds and filled parking lot can also attest to this fact.
However, now is the "best-ever" time to visit since 50 artisans of handcrafted wares have set up in the upstairs section to consolidate your shopping experience. We're talking independent labels, small businesses and budding talent! You will find screenprinted tees, baby layettes and outfits, handrolled polymer clay buttons and pendants, designer handbags from upcycled materials, vintage fabrics, felted pins and rings, clay covered knobs, pens, tins, etc. There's also dazzling stone cut and set in sterling...glittery crystals wired together with shots of color... its an event sure to stimulate all your senses!
Remember, buying local and buying handmade also helps the economy :-) It's not too late for you to check this awesome event out. Here are further details and a peek at some of our teammates making us proud.


Location: 59 Spruce St. Columbus, OH Sat 12/5 hours 8am to 5pm Sun 12/6 12pm to 5pm

Happy Early Birthday greetings to Miss Megan Mac

Author jannypie Category , , , ,

Be sure to visit Tiny Canary this weekend folks and take a moment to stop by the booth of Miss Megan Mac! It's her birthday and we sincerely extend warm wishes to this adored team member. She's our resident weaver and textiles artist. Although talented in many different creative realms, she currently expresses herself in chiffons and silks, batiking and hand-painting them. There's something very decadent about draping yourself in her fine wares! Visit her etsy shop and prepare to be enticed! Her colors and patterns are OUT OF THIS WORLD.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MELANIE!!!

Today we extend warm wishes to Melanie of Mel's Clay. She is a valued team member and polymer clay guru. Furthermore she is doing her part to join the "green" or eco-friendly movement by incorporating recycled materials into her art. You will notice clay covered tins, light-switch covers and drawer knobs are amongst the usual wares in her shop. She also creates clay jewelry and coats ink pens with beautiful clay patterns. If you have a theme or color scheme in mind, she will happily work with you to design a unique and one-of-a-kind finished product. Please take a moment to visit her shop and join us in celebrating her special day!

FINALLY FRIDAY!

Author jannypie Category , , , ,

Greetings faithful followers and Happy Friday. Today I wanted to share a wee bit of info with you all regarding two recent local craft/art shows our members participated in. The photos attached below are from the Worthington Market days event last Saturday. Portions of High Street were blocked off and tents of vendors lined the both sides of the roadway. There were many many unique and interesting wares to be found. Five of our team members shared a space and enjoyed the beautiful day filled with eager shoppers. They were Silverflame, Out of the Pink Sky, Hevvin Designs, Mel's Clay and Adornments by Karla.
At the same time, to the south in downtown the Independents Day event was held. Another five team members came together to represent our team proudly. The sidewalks were covered with amazing chalk drawings and I've heard a grand time was had by all. Those present were Artistic Flair, Arteest, Smarty Pants Design, Maram and Space Dog Studios.
Our roster and talent continues to grow here in ETC as does our presence in and around Columbus. Thank you for sharing the journey with us all! Namaste.
