Rain is falling, that’s nothing new here on the coast, but we have some exciting news to have you grabbing your wellies and heading out the door……

——————————————————————————————————————————

Come and visit us at the studio, April 11+12— it’s our first open house for 2008, and it promises to be a good one! As always, we’ll have walls of bags to choose from, wallets by the basket load, cute cute clothes for Spring and Summer, and stuff not available yet in the shops. We’ve been doing some spring cleaning, so there’s a bunch of sale stuff too….. head over early for the best selection:

Friday April 11: 12pm-10pm

Saturday April 12: 10am-5pm

Also opening their doors are our friends Red Flag Design, so it’s bags bags bags, and something for everybody, including the fellas!! So come on down to 339 Railway Street, you’ll be glad you did.

Hey Toronto, we’re coming to you, May 2-4!!

We are (literally) packing our bags and coming to Toronto, so get ready, this is going to be big!! We’ve never taken the show on the road so to speak, but when our friends at the Clothing Show said come visit, we couldn’t resist. We don’t travel light either, so you’ll enjoy lots of selection at the show: Medium and 12 inch totes, D-ring wallets and Lipstick cases, Clutch and Foldover wallets, Friday bags, Downtown totes and Sash totes….. I think we’re gonna need an extra large suitcase!!
So mark those calendars, it’s a big event not to be missed:

The Clothing Show at the Better Living Centre, Exhibition Place, Toronto

Friday May 2: 3pm-9pm

Saturday May 3: 11am-9pm

Sunday May 4: 11am-7pm

We’re Booth #501, in the Boutique Section, and we’ll be accepting cash, or credit card, and there’s ATM’s onsite for your shopping convenience.
For more information, advance tickets and directions to the show, check out the event website:

Glam to Go in Chicago, Illinois

Lunar Boy Gallery in Astoria, Oregon

Cameron Rose Gifts in Sidney, BC

Naka in Ferndale, Michigan (mid-April)

So even if it’s pouring rain, there’s still a bit of sun on the horizon, and an excuse to wear really cute boots!! xo Janna
