Hey everybody, the Eastside Culture Crawl is over for yet another year. I had tons of fun, and got to hang out with Mel King, another artist who also works in my building. Hopefully you got to partake in the antics at Astrosatchel!!
This weekend come visit me at Festive Collective, I’ll be at the shop from 11-5 Friday, Saturday and Sunday (until 3pm). Not sure if I’ll wear the apron, but I’ll keep you entertained. See you there!! XO Janna
Hey!! So if you didn’t make it to Culture Crawl, and if you missed us at Own Your Own, and you were too tired to make it to Shiny Fuzzy Muddy, not to worry, I have yet another sale for you!! This is the time and place for last minute gifts, and if I have to make you something, I’ll be around for last minute pick ups. If there’s something you REALLY need, please call or email before you come down, so I can do my best to have it for you. Some friends are bringing their items to the studio too, so it’s gonna be fun that you won’t want to miss out on…. xo Janna
It seems that it’s raining again, a sure sign of Fall. I always feel fall in the air by my choice of footwear: today my trusty Hunter rubber boots.
The rain also signals the start of the Fall Market season, so mark your calendars and grab your galoshes, I have a couple events to tell you about:
September 19+20 from 11-5 the studio will be open for your shopping convenience. To make this one even better, our friend Erin Dolman will be coming to town from the Sunshine Coast with her line of jewelry in tow. Hopefully she brings some sunshine too… Check her out online: erindolman.com
In October, just in time for Thanksgiving, I’ll be in New Westminster at Karmavore for our first ever trunk show out there: lots of stuff they don’t usually sell, plus a few Vegan Friendly surprises….. the vegan marshmallows alone are worth the skytrain ticket!!
In other news, there’s lots of new bags at Milltant Penguin, more cozy cashmere at Tartooful, and a new shop called Cherry Blossom Boutique opening in Kaslo BC who will be selling our line….. grab your umbrella and brave the rain, it’ll be worth it!! xo Janna
Hey Everybody…..
We have a Facebook Group now: Astrosatchel Accessories!!
So be sure to join us there as well when you get a chance, and share your own pics of you rocking your Astrosatchel items…. Here’s me wearing our new Sun Hat in Hawaii, and for the record, I was wearing a tube top, you just can’t see it. I’m not one of those naked people who just wears sunglasses and running shoes.
But if you need something new to wear, we’re having an Open Studio Sale with lots of New Products and some Recession beater pricing on a schwack of stuff, so you can still shop local and save your dough. Joining us at the studio are our friends Sumiya Clothing, Cul de Sac ceramics and our pal Audra Neil, with her super cute stuffed animals. Incase you’ve never visited, we’re at 339 Railway Street, buzzer #208.
Sale hours are:
Friday March 2oth– Noon to 8pm
Saturday March 21st– 11am to 6pm
Sunday March 22nd– 11am to 6pm
So mark those calendars, you won’t want to miss out!! And if you join our Facebook group, I’ll remind you, but not 10 times or anything. See you then!! Janna
