Vendor Profile: Work + Shop Boutique







Work + Shop Boutique is a design company dedicated to producing handmade goods with recycled and organic fabrics. Designer Kelly Cairns grew up on a southern Saskatchewan farm and has lived in Vancouver and travelled extensively in Europe, developing her sewing and screen printing skills. In her time as a nomad, she has come to appreciate the values that make Saskatchewan great: respecting the land and reusing materials in creative ways. She happily incorporates her love for the prairies into her designs while remaining true to her own love of all things counter cultural.

Vendor Profile: Willow & Wheat








Willow & Wheat started out of my love for fun, fresh prints for baby blankets for my 2 little boys. I had a hard time finding nice, modern prints for baby boys so I took matters into my own hands! I am a stay at home mom and this allows me to have a creative outlet while spending time with my boys. I have since added bibs, teething rings and other items and am continually coming up with new and fresh ideas! willowandwheat.etsy.com Instagram: @willowandwheat

Vendor Profile: Something from Nothing








Hello! I and my husband live in the heart of the Canadian prairie so we understand cold weather and the need to keep fingers toasty warm! We have four grown daughters, so I also understand the need for mittens that are functional but also feel comfortable and look good. That is how this business began seven years ago. All my mittens are made from thrifted wool sweaters that have been felted which results in them being super warm. They are also fully lined with 100% new cotton flannel thus your hands won't get itchy! I and my assistant, Joy hand make each and every pair in four different sizes from extra small to large and even a few on a string for your baby! I love that old sweaters can take on new life in this way and also love hearing your stories of how my mittens are keeping your family warm. Take a look at what I'm doing on my Instagram account @somethingfromnothingmittens or on my Facebook page https://m.facebook.com/somethingfromnothingmittens/

Vendor Profile: Scummy Magic







Scummy Magic is an illustrated sticker art project that takes on the form of a travelling exhibit that is part retro nostalgia and part affordable adhesiveness. Dispensing stickers, hand-made zines, limited edition screen prints, DIY life advice and whimsy, Scummy Magic looks to exist in the spaces where entrepreneurial visuals meet street art and everything can ultimately be enjoyed for the price of one dollar.
