felts hot for flo

A felt artist friend has been in for some glassblowing classes, and recently commissioned the studio for some very special neclaces for a very special occassion. They custom tailored their necklaces in the colours they wanted, and added on extra findings and glass pieces to make it uniquely their own.

She was kind enough to post about us on her own blog. so we wanted to return the favour.
have a look at her stuff, she's quite the creator with her own fascinating material!

Congrats to fellow designer friend Johnny Sabine who's business chromoly is featured in the latest issue of designlines.

He and business partner Adam Pickard created a line of 'New and Improved' furniture for the group showing of Heavy Metal: Cast Objects at the International Design festival this past January. The line reclaims old and broken wooden furniture repairing the damaged area with bronze.

Another equally wicked and a touch more everyday affordable... johnnys also responsible for the creation of ninja tacks. find more on http://chromoly.ca
