Introducing my Jewellery Cleaner
My customers have been asking me for years how they should clean their Onefooters, so I set out on a search over the past year and a half to try and find the exact right formula. I tried a number…
Notes
West Vancouver
I am so excited to be back in the studio after my Vancouver Summer Show, the Harmony Arts Festival. This lovely event is held on the shores of WestVancouver, and includes not only artisans of high calibre, but also lots…
Summer Shows Coast-to-Coast!
I am delighted to introduce a new design of earrings this summer, which will launch Coast-to-Coast this weekend! First, at the CraftNS show in downtown Halifax (Victoria Park, corner Spring Garden and South Park Streets): Friday, July 20 – 10am…
On Excellence: An Ode to Joe
I am not a food writer. All I know is that Chef Joe MacLellan makes food that completely blows my socks off. And he will no longer be doing this (for now). And that makes me super sad. Joe has…
Maritime Made
I had the great fortune to hear singer songwriter Lesley Feist in concert this weekend here in Halifax. What an incredible show! I have been a listening to her music for a couple of decades. I am just so deeply…
Exhale
I snuck away. Very far away. An almost silly 30 hours travel far away, to the remote lake Atitlan in rural Guatemala. A friend of a friend had moved there, among a fairly well represented expat US/Canadian community. Otherwise, I…

Meet Aryam!
Ah, I am finally back in the studio. Luckily, I have a new sidekick, who held the fort during my absence. Meet Aryam Zubizarreta Perez! Let me give you a little background: I started my business in 2005, while still…
Meanwhile, in Vermont
If I’ve been a little silent over here of late, it’s because I took off for a bit! Right after New Year’s, I left for Vermont, to apply my creativity in a completely different way: cooking. You might know that…
New Onefooters with gems coming daily
This is a very busy time of year for use makers. Now that the shows are finished, I am still finishing more Onefooter rings with gems every day. I managed to get a few quick photos of the newest additions…
Trunk Show at the Waegwoltic Country Club
Dear friends, if you are in Nova Scotia, there will be one more chance to come see me and my work: this coming Thursday, December 7th, I will put together a pop-up trunk show at the Waegwoltic in Halifax’s South End…
Match
If you follow me on Instagram or Facebook, you will know that I just finished a series of shows across the country: first Vancouver, then Toronto, and finally Halifax. It is a curious thing: to take the artist out of…
Vancouver, Toronto, Halifax
Ah, it’s that time of year again: time to bring the pieces I make out of the studio, and meet my clients in person at shows, Coast to Coast. This year, I will have 3 stops: Vancouver, Toronto and Halifax. …
