Announcement
March 2024: Attention, I am taking a break for the month of March. Orders placed between February 25th and March 31st will be shipped the first week of April 2024. If you are interested in an item, I can also place a hold on it until I return, if this your preference please message me.
Canadian shoppers, shipping prices via Canada Post within Canada for items shipped with tracking are high particularly with the fuel surcharge. One way to offset shipping prices is to purchase more than one item from my shop since multiple items generally can be shipped for the pretty much the same price. If you wish to do this, please contact me before ordering so I can combine shipping before you order.
If you would like to arrange local pickup either in Parry Sound or one of my market events, please use the coupon code LOCALPICKUP when checking out.
Effective July 1, 2022 GST/HST will be rolled into my prices for Canadian buyers. Etsy now requires HST registered vendors to roll GST/HST into their prices. Canadian buyers will no longer see GST/HST added as a separate line on your order - my prices for Canadian sales will be GST/HST inclusive. For provinces with PST, this will still show as a separate line on your receipt as it is collected and remitted by Etsy. I have no control over this. If you require a sales receipt with sales tax as a separate line item, please let me know when ordering and I will include one with your shipment.
Welcome to my shop, take a moment to browse my funky designs. If you have specific timelines, please contact me before ordering and I can provide quotes for expedited shipping if needed.
I am located in Parry Sound, Ontario and am happy to arrange local pick-up for your order. Contact me prior to ordering if you would like to arrange local pickup. As well, over the summer months you can find me at both the Parry Sound Market most Tuesday and at the McKellar Market most Saturdays - weather permitting.
New to my shop this year is OOAK themed baskets! I also offer my hand knit and crochet heirloom garlands, ornaments and key chains. Great attention to detail in all my products. Why not have a garland custom made to meet your needs or match your home decor. Also perfect for photo shoots - whether for baby, a photo booth or product display.

5 out of 5 starsSandra was so patient with me. She knew I was trying to match up the mitten garland with an existing now vintage set of mittens and she gave me several options after asking me for photos. The end result was an absolutely beautiful garland. I so appreciated the talent and stellar customer service of this Etsy artist.

5 out of 5 starsMy order was made and shipped in a couple of days. Sandra was great to work with, and even sent me a picture of different colors of yarn so I could pick what I wanted.

5 out of 5 starsColorful, functional, unique, and convenient! Shipping was extremely fast from Canada to the USA. I got 2 of these with a split ring keychain style. One is in the "gold green ombre" color. The quality is wonderful - close, even stitching. It's very well crafted. The yarn is very soft, I'm almost sad it's not a real sock I can wear! It fits my preferred lip balm by Farmacy. My lip balm tube is about 7.6cm long with a diameter of 1.7cm. The seller is amazing! They were very communicative, gave me a lot of options and details, and all around so easy and amazing to work with.

5 out of 5 starsFunctional, unique, and charming! Shipping was extremely fast from Canada to the USA. I got 2 of these with a split ring keychain style. One is in the "purple pink marled" color. It gives off such cozy vibes. This lip balm holder is extremely well made. I imagine I won't be losing my lip balms as often now that I'm using these! The seller is amazing! They were very communicative, gave me a lot of options and details, and all around so easy and amazing to work with.

5 out of 5 starsLove, love, love it! I'm using this to hold my Aldi quarter. Shipping was extremely fast from Canada to the USA. It's very well made with even stitches. I expect this charming mitten to last a long time with good care!
