Another Gorgeous Friend
I don’t have to go far to find a pretty face. Just a finished a photo session with my good friend Aimee. One picture is prettier than the next. This hat is Summer Brooke. It is one of my new organic hemp and cotton jersey summer hats and can be found on my etsy site.
Birthday Week
Seven Years ago today at 7:19 a.m, my little Dusty was evicted from my belly. After 9 1/2 months, 36 hours of hard labor and enough pitosin to induce triplets, Dusty held on to his Mama with impressive tenacity. They eventually had to pry him from my womb by way of the knife. The cord…
Revisiting a Former Self
I just finished a wholesale order for one of my favourite customers, Beauchapeau in Niagara on the Lake. I was asked to make a particular straw hat and trim it any way I like. Music to my ears. I took a trip down memory lane to a former ultra romantic self and had a marvelous…

We got it Too!
Finally! After hearing about the impressive snow fall just about everywhere except Lunenburg, I was really feeling left out. What’s winter without snow? Well, here it is. Because our driveway is so close to our neighbour’s, we have nowhere to pile the snow except the front of the house. There are two little creatures that…
The Girl Next Door
This is truly amazing. I have been wishing for a model for some time. It is just so hard to coordinate times. If only there was a beautiful woman next door. All I had to do was open my eyes and behold there is Hayley, beautiful mom to Thomas and Luke. Two doors down. We…
