That was fun

The NSDCC Christmas Craft Show  last weekend was once again a wonderful event. I loved seeing all my clients, and meeting new ones, and it’s also always fun to hang around the other artisans. I really enjoy talking about my inspirations and techniques.

It is such a joy to be able to talk about my work

Many people talked about how much they enjoy coming to this, the finest craft market in Halifax, year after year.  And you wouldn’t believe how many people came by to show me their Onefooter rings, and tell me how much they love them.  It’s so nice to know that I can bring joy into people’s lives.  I would say that is, besides the passion I have for moving metal, the second reason why I am a jewellery designer and goldsmith.  Thank you all for coming to the show!

I love the fact that all different kinds of people like my work, across various demographics

Of course an event such as this doesn’t just magically appear out of thin air. I want to give a shout out to the organizer, Julie Rosvall, and NSDCC director Susan Hanrahan, as well as all the (we wish they were countless!) volunteers who make the show happen. Thank you for giving your everything, and thank you for loving fine craft and believing in its makers!

And finally, a hurray for the excellent good humour of my fellow vendors. The trophy goes to The Newfoundland Chocolate Company, who, after a full exhausting show weekend, had the good humour for this scene to take place during take-down:

Brent of The Newfoundland Chocolate Company saran-wrapped his employee Paola to the pallet as they were preparing it for shipping during take-down Sunday night. She had to be rescued, a task made difficult because she was laughing so hard!

Gotta love Newfoundlanders!
