Pictures from Market Collective



I got an email the other day from the wonderful gals over at the Boyhood Uniformity blog. They managed to snap a few photo's at the Market Collective of some of the artists at the show. Much to my surprise, Millicent made the cut! Here are Danielle and I manning my table and a great shot of the sun showcasing some of the feather earrings. I kept telling people I wanted to be a cat and curl up in the sun patch myself.... some people laughed, other people looked at me like I escaped from the asylum. Oh well, if they bought some goodies, then they can call me whatever they like!
Thanks so much to Jane & Emily for remembering a camera and taking some photo's! Go to their blog to check out other shots from the show!

Jewelry Party!





I remembered to bring my camera, but I only remembered to take photo's in the final hour... as you can see Trina is tired and Russell desperately wants us to leave.

Highlights include, but are not limited to; me managing to eat half a wheel of brie cheese (obviously making it a great night), Kolby & Carly singlehandedly accounting for over 50% of my nights earnings, and constantly mistaking the feathers falling from the giant dream catcher as earrings on the floor.

Thanks so much for coming!

( & many thanks to Frannie for hosting!)

Post Apocalypse

Some pieces I ended up saving for myself. Quartz crystal pyramid (which I have not removed in days - a new summer staple) & my beloved feather earrings - the only pink I can handle wearing.


After 10 hours of sleep, I'm finally feeling energized. This past weekend was my first venture into the Art & Craft market community here in Calgary. Market Collective was held in the northwest neighborhood of Kensignton and was greatly received by the locals of Calgary. I manned my booth with my friend Danielle on Saturday and my mum on Sunday (who came all the way from Edmonton to help out - thanks mumsy!) Sadly, I was camera-less therefore not capturing any photos of my displays (which, I must say looked pretty darn good!) or the general ambiance of the show for all my non-Calgary friends to see. Let's just say it was super super fun! Bands played all day while crafters and artists chatted with people of all age groups coming through the space.
I'm happy to say Millicent Jewellery did a good job flying out the doors and into the Calgary abyss with their happy new owners. All the left over jewellry I have is coming with me to Edmonton for a little impromptu sale I will be having for all my Edmo peeps. Im hoping to have this organized for next weekend - perhaps Friday evening, I'll keep you all in the loop! In the mean time, as I have previously promised, Im going to take some photo's of what I have left over and post it on the blog and you can feel free to email me for first dibs on certain pieces.

big love

Time Time Time

With a new job comes more time wasted on a computer. Due to this fact I have been posting a lot more on my other, other, blog Pieces From Audrey. It's mostly about the fashion world and my daily wanderings through vintage stores, my closet and other inspiring blogs out there.

Check it out!

Panic Ensues



June 19 & 20
Admission $2 or a Food Bank Donation
148-10 St NW Calgary




So Im doing Calgary's Market Collective next weekend. I am trying to get together enough inventory for the show, which is not an easy feat as I now have a real job that eats up most of my day time hours. Regardless, I have been told that this Market Collective is a busy one and to expect to see a lot people come through the space. Yikes! I better get to work and get off this computer.

Big love. See you all there!
