Shambles Jewelry Design

Born and raised on Vancouver
Island I cannot remember a
time when I was not crafting
and creating. I grew up in a
family where every weekend
was an exploration of a
different part of Vancouver
Island and every evening was a
chance to knit, sew or flip
through craft magazines for
more projects. I learned and
explored through macrame,
knitting, cross stitch and bead-
ing to find my passion for work-
ing with metals and making
jewelry. I love the shapes and
textures you can create and
there is challenge and discovery
with every piece I work with on
my bench. I love to find beauty
in the imperfect and the unique
and I am grateful for every day.

Funky Fungus Creations

Hello, I am a potter from Parksville. I have been creating and selling my
wares since 2015, and feel so fortunate to be living my passion. Although
I have taken a few casual pottery classes, I consider myself self-taught in
this medium, and I love the challenge that wheel-work brings forth. The
local forests and beaches are where I find my peace, as well as inspiration
for my pottery designs. I believe my original detail and local theme have
made my work a hit with visitors and residents alike. I have sold my
wares in numerous summer markets (Parksville, Qualicum, Nanaimo and
Campbell River), Christmas shows (Victoria to Campbell River) and sell
from numerous retail stores throughout Vancouver Island (Oak Bay to Pt
Mc Neil). I reap such joy from peoples reactions to my pottery, and love
the connection this creates. I am so encouraged when someone pur-
chases my work, and am very appreciative of the support. Thank you

Keeping Afloat

Kim Naylor was born and raised in
Prince Rupert on the north coast
of British Columbia. Her maternal
grandfather was a fisherman for
over 40 years and collected glass
fishing floats. Kim inherited her
fascination with the precious
spheres from him. Keeping
Afloat began with the repair of
one of her grandfather's floats
over 24 years ago and the rest,
as they say, is history. Mostly
self taught, her work is always
evolving and although it is a bit
of a cliche to say the artist's work
is ocean inspired, in this case it
truly is. Kim now lives on
Vancouver Island and is
never far from a beach.

My Noisy Boys Designs

My name is Caroline Storie www.mynoisyboys.blogspo
and I am a Brit who moved to
the beautiful Cowichan Valley
14 years ago. I live in a little
blue house with my noisy
family, a barky dog and a cat
with wide, surprised eyes. My
Noisy Boys is the space where
I create quirky pictures of
both the world around me and
the feelings inside me using
fabric, pen, paint and thread.
My hope is that my work will
bring a sense of connection
and a little smile to peoples
day to day living
