Thank you

A BIG thank you to everyone that came out to the Spring One of A Kind Show in Toronto last week! Being a small business owner is exciting because you get see the physical results of the energy that you put into your passion..

Happy Birthday Dawn!

Today Dawn will be enjoying a well deserved day off (nobody works on their birthday at ) and maybe basking in some sunshine on a patio enjoying this oddly warm March weather! Dawn is the greatest. Wayne and I are so lucky to have her in our professional and personal lives! She’s been

New friends in Florida
