Christmas piece

There is less than a week until the event at EJCA, but before that, I have a stack of orders to finish.
Here is a couple of the order made pieces.
Christmas head band
 (dupioni silk, antique lace, velvet leaves, french netting, antique earring, black goose feathers)
Shabby chic head band. (dupioni silk, french netting, white goose feathers, antique look pearly button)


These french netting and feathers make a big difference: add extra elegance and a touch of softness.
I am so into making these head pieces. It is so much fun!
I will be bringing them to the events too, so if you have special color orders, just email me and I can bring them to the events.

Upcoming events

The next event will be the Fall Bazzar at EJCA (edmonton Japanese Community Association) on October 30th.
From my last years experience, this event will be very busy.
This year, they are expecting more people. Their Bento boxes, rice cakes, sushi are very popular and people come early to line up for these.
There are also some crafters too. (maybe 4 or 5 exept us)
EJCA is kind of cozy so it's going to be a zoo.
Make sure you come early to get what you want.
Quantities are limited!


On November 6th, there will be the Handmade Mafia show at orange Hall as usual, but I am not sure if i can be there yet, so will inform you later.





On November 20 (10am-5pm) and 21(11am-5pm), we will be attending to Handmade Mafia Winter Wonderland.
This is going to be a big event too.
Lots of vendors are coming so you will find neat handmade Christmas presents for everyone.
Please make sure the place as it's NOT held at orange hall.
It's at Strathcona Centre Community League on 10139-87 Avenue, Edmonton.


The last weekend of November, we will be attending Royal Bison craft fair.
There are over 60 vendors!
Go to their website and you can see vendor's webpages.
I missed the spring show, and I was waiting for the fall/winter show.
I am so excited to be there the first time!
Please come and shop to get ready for the Christmas!


There will be a couple of Handmade Mafia shows in December too.
I should be there if I am accepted to the show.

Please order early before it gets crazy busy.
If you order by email (contact button on the left of this article), I can bring it to these shows or send them by mail.
You can see more pictures on Facebook SaSa.

For Halloween and Christmas

I started working on Christmas stuff.
Christmas decorations and thinking about Christmas fun are always exciting, but before that,
you can't forget Halloween.
My kids decided to be Batman, Luigi, and zombie.
Actually I made Mario and Luigi (and toad mushroom) costumes last year, but my oldest son couldn't have fun because he got really high fever (he ended up going trick or treating for 5 minutes and couldn't walk anymore..poor guy)
So, he decided to wear Luigi this year for the party in school and be a zombie for trick or treating.
I am going to make my 2nd oldest son a Batman costume this year and some decorations around the house.
Anyway, I can't quite finish up my outside decoration because my house's exterior hasn't been finished yet (although we bought/built this house last year around this time! Soooo frustrating!)

My sewing/crafting room is already getting to be a crazy mess (it's always messy but now it's messier! lol) from making/creating lots of clothes and accessories for sales coming along during Christmas.
November will be really busy for me as I have been accepted to be a vendor for Royal Bison and expectantly, for the Handmade Mafia and its special event.
I will inform you later about EJCA(Edmonton Japanese Community Association) Fall Bazaar.
You don't want to miss it because you can eat Japanese food and see lots of beautiful crafts.

Tomorrow, I will be at the monthly event, the Handmade Mafia.
It's from 10am-4pm at Orange Hall that's behind the Strathcona Farmer's Market in Edmonton.
There are lots of cool stuff that is all handmade by voendors.
No admission.
I will be there with lots of new stuff for fall and winter.
