new studio space
I am finally settled in my new apartment in Toronto.
The move from Montreal was no fun. We almost ran out of Gas on the highway and got yelled at by a very angry woman police officer. She was ripping.
I own too much stuff and the loading and unloading the truck was miserable. However my lovely friends helped me out and I survived.
Working from home has been a real adjustment. I much prefer having a studio space with wicked studio mates to chat with but my home studio will have to do for now. I really miss my studio mates thepinpals.typepad.com. They are two of my most favorite people! I try to break up my day by having lunch with a buddy or visiting my sister at some point. otherwise home studio time is too isolating. I will go bananas!
One of the best parts of living in Toronto is the St. Lawrence Flea market. I am a Flea market addict.
Here is what I got last weekend.
it’s an Edwardian pillow case from around 1910 . At least that’s what the stout old british lady I bought it from told me. Aren’t those cats messed up? I love it.
I have decided to be part of Puce Pop this year. It’s a craft fair happening in Montreal the 4th and 5th of October. I will be making Bell Jar Dollies for it.
I will post all the details for Puce Pop closer to the date.
