OOAK VIDEO Spring 2015!

<<<< click title for video

As many of you know I take off to the One of a Kind Show twice a year in Toronto and although I tell everyone it is a crazy big show I wanted to make a video to show you. My booth setup is like none of the other shows I do all year. It takes me 2 full days to get it all put together, but I absolutely love doing it.

I’ll be posting my favourite finds from the show in the next few days as well. Hope to see you all again soon Toronto and if you haven’t stopped by be sure to come find me at Christmas time when I do it all over again.

It is also my first attempt at making a video … so I hope you like it!

Market Collective!

This past weekend was the amazing Market Collective and what a weekend it was. So much talent is always packed under one roof and this time it was filled with TONS of delicious food, which you had to know made me happy.

The vibe at the show this weekend was like nothing else and I think everyone having a few months off to recharge made all the difference. Everyone was relaxed and just having a great time, happy to hang out and take it all in. Thank you as always for putting on an amazing show!

Of course like any show I can’t resist buying up some local good for myself and here is what I scooped up. Be sure to head over to their sites and check them out and the next time you see them say hi and maybe pick something up for yourself.

Dress | Lunss
This is about as comfortable as you can get. It is actually made from the same fabric as our leggings, dresses and scarves, just in fleece form. I’ve had it on since I’ve come home from the show and am in LOVE with it!

Socks | Friday Sock Co. 
Not only do I love a fun pair of socks, but the fact they are high socks makes them perfect for my daily hikes with Baron and keeping my feet happy. Happy feet are important. Plus they were only $10. How do you go wrong?

Necklace | BlushCheek
Such a simple and perfect necklace for myself. I don’t wear much jewelry, but I can promise this one will be in high rotation with my daily outfits … once I take off the sweater of course.

Mountain Shelf | Needle & Pine
I don’t think much needs to be said here. Build from old recycled barn wood it is perfect and totally up my alley. I already have about 10 different spots I want to put it up in my home. (mini plant bottles by PLANT)

Tote | Market Collective
Every show they have new totes and being you can grab them when you pay to get in, why not. I have bought one at every show and have quite a collection that is growing. Make sure to pick it up so you can put all your unique finds inside to take home.

Market Collective is having their next show May 1 + 2 + 3 with a whole new lineup of artists. You can find the list here. If you have a chance and are in Calgary you should check it out.

I’ll leave you with a cute photo of Baron helping with the photo shoot … so bossy telling me that his best friend (his blue dog) needed to be in the photo and rearranging things.

Hope everyone who made it out had a fun weekend. See you soon.

Market Collective Recap

This past weekend I was down in Calgary one last time for the summer and it seems I saved the best for last. It was Market Collective’s 6 anniversary birthday celebration and well I don’t think it could have been any better than it was. The venue was absolutely perfect, the weather was amazing, tons of talented artisans, the best local live music and all the YYC food trucks. Seriously what else did you need. Oh and it was right next to the river.

I started doing Market Collective back at the beginning of 2010 and have tried to do everyone I could since. I think I only missed 1 or 2 since I began. Market Collective as many of you know has helped to shape many of my friends businesses with myself included in this bunch. Shows like this helped me to grow Whiteout W. into what it is today and I could never say thank you enough for having a show that support so much talent.

I truly hope if you live in Calgary and have never been you can make it out to the next one. It’s worth a road trip for a great day of fun as well.

Like normal I can barely contain my spending habits and this weekend I got to pick up some pretty amazing find as well. This is some of the great handmade goodies you can find and are the new additions to my home.

Art IllustrationsGloria Ho
I don’t know what it is about these little hipster bears, but I ended up buying all 6 of them who had little hats on. These will all be framed above my bed. I fell in love with each and every one of them and can’t wait to get these framed and hung up!

Wood Block Printed CardsHop & Flop
Who doesn’t need to have a drawer of cards for the unknown event that might just call on it. Butter Up & Chill seemed perfect along with a rain cloud spitting a little waterfall. So much fun.

Ceramic PinS’more Society
I know it is hard to see, but I picked up a little mountain pin that is going to be placed on my winter coat for the season. Each one of my winter coats has a small pin or broach and this one is going to be well loved.

Local Calgary Lifestyle MagDote Magazine
You had to know with my absolute love for print media I’d be all over this magazine and reading it line for line. After leading up design for 5 years on magazines it was so cool to see a brand new publication hit the scene I am so familiar with. It seems everyone else fell in love as well since they ran out. Watch their media outlets … I’m sure they’ll have more for you soon enough

Ceramic MugSalty Sea Dog Designs
With winter coming I figured it was time to add another tea drinking and relaxing mug to the collection. I managed to snag their last ship one and couldn’t be happier. They do some pretty fun ceramics with great designs. Already have it filled with tea in front of me while I write this post.

Enjoy all your amazing new finds from this past weekend and hope to see you at the Christmas market coming up soon enough.
