Its the Handmade in Canada Party.

Have you heard the exciting news? The TransCanada Etsy team is hosting the Handmade in Canada Party, which runs from June 24-July 1. TWO great prizes are up for grabs.

First, is a handwoven rug crafted by team member, fiveforty.

Simply make any purchase from my etsy shop, or from the shop of the other participating members and for every $10 spent (excluding shipping) you will earn a ballot for the draw.

The second prize is a very generous goodie bag.

To win, find a hidden Canadian symbol in one of my shop listings. In the same listing, you will find a clue leading you to the next shop.

Please visit the team blog for full details on how to win and to see photos of the prizes.

*** Now, here is my PARTY FAVOUR to you!! Enjoy 25% off all items in my shop (excluding items in the Sale section). Offer is good until 12:01am EST, on July 2. I will refund the discount through paypal.

I'm Back...

Sorry for the super-long hiatus. Have you been waiting for my return? LOL

Well, we have now settled in our new place near Halifax , Nova Scotia. I am absolutely delighted to be here.

I have started a new blog here, titled "The New Haligonians". My hope is to share with you all the wonderful adventures that happen in my new homebase.

Hope you will continue to visit me here, and become a follower on my new blog as well.

Now stay tuned as I return to a somewhat regular blogging schedule.
