The season is in mid swing and many of my fall markets and shows are already complete….but there are still many more to come….. In addition, I am hosting a couple workshops this fall. Please read the list below in sequential order for what is to come.

***Wine in the Woods and Jewellery Creation workshop – this happens tonight, Fri Oct 27th and it is full 🙂 Hosted along with Karla of Ruby Red Vino, we host of night of wine, cheese, and gemstones bracelets. A lesson on this fall’s collection of fine bold wooded red wines paired with an Amazonite gemstone bracelet are on the menu. It’s a fun night with lots of laughs. We plan to host another in 2018, dates to be determined.

***Kananaskis Country Christmas Market at Redwood House

Another great event filled with local handcrafted goodies, crafts and arts. It’s a special event for me, being in my home town area. The market has so many wonderful and original finds, you will not be disappointed. The Bragg Creek Artisans also host their Christmas event on the same weekend just down the road at the Bragg Creek Community Centre, so be sure to check out both when you make the drive out.

***Waldorf Faire – at the Calgary Waldorf School

This full day event is different from all the rest. If you have young children, this is an event not to miss. Not only is the gym filled with unique handcrafted items with an eclectic mix, the entire school puts on crafts and activities for the children. Tickets can be purchased on site the day of the event. Children can wander through the school and choose their activities, treats & crafts – all Waldorf style. So much fun! For many, this is an annual event not to miss.

***Leather Workshop

On Friday Nov 24th, I will be hosting a leather workshop in Redwood Meadows. It’s not a “one size fits all class” – it’s a “pay for what you want” class with colour and embellishment options. I have 3 tiers of class time for you to choose from, as well, there will be snacks and drinks.

Location: Redwood House, 1 Many Horses Drive, Redwood Meadows

Date: Fri Nov 24th, 6:30-9:30pm for the full session (mini class ends 7:30pm, giving it a good try class ends 8:00 or 8:30pm)

Costs: $150 (full session), $90 (1/2 session), $40 (mini session), you will leave with more product value than the price of the workshop. Full details in my leather workshop post: Leather Workshop
