little things making

Kemp and I were brainstorming last night on what to do with this little nook that we have above a door in our living area. It has remained empty for the past 3 years (save the time we wanted to prove to ourselves that it would be a cool place to hang) and I really think it's time we get making.


Lights, plants, miniatures, space, string, fractals, projections - that was as far as we got. Kemp joked about making little miniatures of ourselves to live up there and it seems it could one day be a pretty easy project.


These little tinies are 3D printed replicas of real people! Isn't technology amazing?


Here is where I learned about the 3D printing photo booth being exhibited in Japan. Some lucky visitors will be leaving with a miniature likeness of themselves. HOW COOL IS THAT!?

If I am to ever get one of these little guys of my own, it will definitely not be tucked away in that top nook, though. But a miniature of the moon? Yes, that might be worthy of the space.

Stamping ground

After a near year long hiatus, we're back with a new look in the shop!

Our roll of vintage wallpaper was running low, so it was time for something new. Like a stamp!


I wish we could combine the two, but ink doesn't hold well on wallpaper. That's ok, because I forgot how much fun stamps are to use. The coffee slip is my favourite.


Purchase in June and you just might be lucky enough to receive one of these repurposed beauties.

The tags and cards are in preparation for the Trinity Bellwoods yard sale. Come see us in the park this Saturday between 10 am and 5 pm (well, 3 pm since we have to dart out early).


And hey, in honour of combining vintage and Trinity Bellwoods, check out what a gem the park used to be here.
