I love having the privilege to teach my macrame workshops in new and beautiful places! This location, County Collective, was right up my alley when it comes to aesthetics; white walls, light wood, Scandinavian feel and perfectly curated products. Not to mention it's located in the quaint town of Bloomfield, in Prince Edward County. PEC is the new hot spot to go and escape the city because it's just under a 2.5 hour drive east of Toronto and is filled with beautiful places to stay, vineyards, lavender fields, cute modern stores and antique shops! I can't wait to go back! Here are some photos from my wall hanging workshop this past July! Click here to see when my next workshop is and...
There is something to be said about the physical act of making, or creating something with your own hands. It is so rewarding, espeically in this day and age where most of what we interact with is ditigal, or on a device of some sort. Everything I create starts as an idea that came from some sort of inspriation. Now turning that idea into a physical thing is something of true beauty. Every action is one step forward that begins to unveil something that began as inspriation and slowly becomes a reality. For me, each knot becomes part of a larger pattern. I love the proccess of making. It can be very theraputic and just straight food for my soul. Everyones...
Hey Everyone! This past saturday I taught a Modern Macrame Wall Hanging workshop, hosted by Heck Yes! in Peterborough, Ontario. Everyone did so well, caught on so fast and walked away with a unique wall hanging! Such a great group of women! Check out photos of the wall hangings they made and where they hung them on Instagram using #NRworkshop. We all had a fun time so I wanted to share some beautiful photos my best friend Jenn took.

Even though there isn't much snow on the ground here, I'm already missing the sunshine and beautiful greenery that comes with the other seasons. That's why I feel winter really is the perfect time to breathe some life into your space. Adding greenery to your house or workspace is my favourite way to liven up a room, especially since some plants even purify the air! I think the Lattice Plant Hanger I made is a unique way to introduce some new greenery to your home - or to showcase a plant you already have. It's beautiful, directional details are accented with cute floral clusters that cascade accross the wall hanging, adding texture and warmth. Combining a wall hanging and a plant...
If you're reading this, you have probably already figured out that my shop is now open! Hooray!! I'm so excited to finally be able to share this with all of you! After months of knotting, reknotting, planning, and working late hours into the night, this dream has become a reality! Here's a little bit about me and the inspiration for my work. There has always been a drive deep within me to create, and the act of making feeds my soul. I find inspiration in all that surrounds me and my eye is drawn to the beautiful details. I love the art of expression through line and pattern. I aim for my work to bring texture and life to a...
