Beauties at the Historic Halifax Market
Tony and I have been selling our wares at the old Historic Halifax Market. I really love it there. While the crowds are pushing each other at the Seaport market down the street, customers are leisurely shopping in the most gorgeous historic stone building. Regina ordered this fascinator from me and I wish I could…
Adorable Customers
So many adorable customers. This is Jamie, sporting her Charlotte hat in the rain. A woman with style. What more can I say. She’s just perfect. Randi is one of my favourite regular customers. It’s true I have a lot of favourites, but that’s because fabulous, strong women are attracted to my hats. I love…
A Walk Around Lunenburg
The other day my dad e-mailed me to see if my blog site was not working. He thought it odd that the last post was from August 31st. Hint well taken. So, here I am, coming up for air after having completed a few hundred hats for wholesale orders. Thought I’d bring you along on…

Lady Luck
For a couple of years now I have been selling my winter hats at Lady Luck Boutique in the Hydrostone Market in Halifax. This year we decided to see how the summer hats would sell. Well, they have been flying out the door. There’s nothing more fun than getting a frantic message that more hats…
A Shop of My Own
Tony has built me the most beautiful hat shop/ studio. It’s truly a dream come true. This space was once filled with mold and mushrooms and when it rained outside it rained inside. I could never have seen the transformation. One of Tony’s many talents. Tony is almost finished building my beautiful cutting table, which…
Almost Ready
It’s really happening. Tony just hung up the first round of hat stands in my new studio. I think I may actually start moving in tomorrow. So, is it true what they say? “If you build it they will come.” See you this summer in Lunenburg, right?
