Monday, December 20, 2010. Pabrika at Dorly Designs. Last month Pabrika Handmade began selling its famous pillows at Dorly Designs. And a few weeks later we were thrilled to be invited to showcase our jewellery as well! And just in the nick of time - I was just about to take off on work / holiday travels when the news came.

http://pabrikastudio.blogspot.com/2011/02/casting-at-jewel-envy.html

Tuesday, February 22, 2011. Just wanted to share a few pictures with you from the casting class I took at Jewel Envy. Last fall. (Yes, it took me THAT long to get the pictures up here.

And amazingly, the majority of this wedding was DIY! It took place in Hennebont, France. So where to begin? Let's start with the "save the date" cards. These were designed and put together by the talented owner of Tulle Box Designs. My sister is...

Pabrika Studio: RIP Tofu

http://pabrikastudio.blogspot.com/2010/09/rip-tofu.html

Tuesday, September 21, 2010. I am sad to report that Tofu, the store mascot, passed away this summer :( She was a loving hamster that amused me to no end. I will always remember the time she peed in her wheel, continued to run in it, and came out showered in urine. She was shivering cold, but happy. Here's to the memories Tofu! RIP Tofu. 2008-2010. After an appropriate grieving period, I have adopted a new hamster (though certainly not a replacement! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Sunday, May 31, 2009. And so, as if my apartment was not already engulfed in fabric and paint, I decided to add beads to the mix!

Necklace - I made one for myself too! I also really like the " Flashy Octagon. Yesterday I went to the Textile Museum of Canada. More than just a yardage sale. Textile museum of canada.
