Blackbird Studios

8/27/2011

Blackbird Studios ceramics by Paige Kearns-Coull is the latest addition to a growing number of lines we have in by Vancouver Island artists. Paige lives and works in Victoria where she creates beautiful pottery and jewellery. According to her bio: "Every piece of pottery she creates is treated as an individual unique piece of art; no piece is replicated in either dimensions or surface design to ensure that the owner has a one of a kind piece". Paige's passion for ceramics is evident in her work.....

I think these hanging balls would be lovely out in the garden on a tree branch or maybe hanging in the kitchen window.....

Blackbird Studios handmade porcelain jewellery features gorgeous vintage decals and hand painted designs.....

We also have Blackbird Studios bracelets, tumblers and even cute little creme brulee dishes!

Erin Templeton Leather Accessories

8/19/2011

Erin Templeton started making leather accessories in 1999 and she now has a storefront and studio in Vancouver where she continues to make gorgeous accessories by hand - using both recycled vintage and new leather. "Minimal hardware and simple strong construction" combined with beautiful soft leathers make Erin Templeton pieces the kind you'll love for years as they just get better with age.

These little change purses are made of 100% recycled leather and have two separate zippered pockets.....

Need to get more organized anyone? These handy dandy list-keeper/note-taker/sketch/jot-down-the-name-of-that-person-place-or-thing-quick books will help! And the moleskine notebooks inside are easily replaceable once you've filled yours up.

These card and passport cases are perfect for travel or a night out because you can easily tie them around your waist or neck when you want to be hands free but keep your ID safe and sound. The string is also easily removable for when you want to throw it in your bag.

Last but definitely not least, we also have these gorgeous Erin Templeton leather wallets/clutches...

P.S. We are starting to get some fall deliveries but I can't bring myself to put out the wool sweaters and rain jackets yet when it feels like we just got summer! There are still lotsa great summer pieces here though.......and they are ON SALE!

What's on sale you ask? Pretty much all of the remaining summer clothing. For example we still have one of these....(cinder + smoke, size small).....

And one of these.....(Floating Gold Iceberg skirt, size medium)......

And one of these.......(We3, size large).....

Sorry to say that we will be closed on Sundays again starting this weekend. We've given it a go for 3 months now but sadly there just hasn't been enough Sunday traffic. However, if you're a Sunday shopper, feel free to send us an email to arrange a Sunday time for you to come in - that would be no problem!
