SILK SCREENING-Good for gifting and learning!

My sister Chel made these killer hilarious tea towels for me and my other sister Jen this Christmas. They are so Chel and totally random that it makes me love them so many times with every use. She made them on the fly at PEACH BESERK here in Toronto. The filming location of both the Glitter Pie: POM POM and CORSAGE DIY videos. Kingi has owned and operated it for years and years---she and the location are dripping with undone-done creativity and style. I have taken her workshops before to learn how to silk screen---which has served me well over the years. I tell you: the studio and the lessons are out there-COOL! ONE OF A KIND. An experience you will remember for a long time with silk screened take-aways you made yourself with your new skills and designs!

To get a sneak peak of the location and the outrageous styles you are in for- go to YouTube and search (MSGLITTERPIE) and see for yourself! CHECK IT OUT!

Find the workshop in your heart

You hear it everywhere:

"Find your bliss"

"Do what you love"

But what does that mean for you?

What needs to happen in your mind and in your life to make that possible?

Deep in a quiet neighbourhood a couple of hours outside of Toronto---i found something:

This mini house on the property of the home i was staying. A tricked out work shed of man-like dreams. Years were poured on the shelves by way of old cans filed with tools and screws. Every last article organized and homes made for each piece of equipment.

This space created after years of dabbling. Now a fully functioning workroom for jobs and dreams coming true. Someone owned their bliss, their skill. Made a little home for it and watched the jobs come pouring in.

I was inspired.

Build your workshop---whatever that may be.

Your life will be inspiring.
