Hey Folks,

Sorry it’s been such a long time for an update!

Life has been full of baby boy Finn and business has taken a little break for a while.

Stay tuned for updates in the coming weeks- in the meantime, my Etsy is still up and running.

Here’s a pic of the big project in life these days!

Summertime in Vancouver

admin — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 18:29:19 +0000

Hi all,

I’ve been a little slow updating the website this summer- I’ve been a little bit distracted though, as I get ready for a new addition in the household! I’m expecting my first child- Nov. 2nd due date! It’s so very exciting, and this feels like great creative timing as my business continues to grow as well.

But stay tuned, and look forward to new announcements for shows for the upcoming fall (already?!), additional stores, and ETSY is on the verge!!

We’re off to Tofino for a week, and I’m wondering what mysterious things I’ll find washed up on the beach this year? Always a source of inspiration!

Enjoy the summer heat!

A little visual treat- here’s a shot from outside my house a couple days ago- it seems the Korean Foursquare Church is a favourite hang out for these guys:

As I was walking to the studio today I noticed the first of the flower bulbs pressing their heads out of the ground- how did it get to be Mid-February already? There is so much to do!

DAL designs is pushing out into the world, like those young bulbs, reaching for new opportunities and growth. Stay tuned to the website for new stores and connections to an online market.

The next big thing?

November: CRAWL! and Portobello West

admin — Sun, 09 Nov 2008 22:32:33 +0000

Oh November! The busiest month for DAL designs, here are two great events I am participating in:

The 12th Annual Eastside Culture Crawl!, Nov. 21-23rd, 2008

From my studio #240 in the Mergatroid Bldg, (975 Vernon Dr.) I will be showing the latest pendants and earrings from DAL designs, as well as my sculptural work that has been developing over the past year. I am delighted to be exhibiting next to Jacqueline Robins and Laura McKibbon, my very talented studio mates. Come by and see what’s new!

Portobello West, Nov. 30, 2008

Once again DAL designs will be hanging out at the Rocky Mountaineer Station from noon – 6pm, along with over 100 other talented local designers and artists.

SHOP LOCAL: With Christmas approaching, and the time of year that many people spend $ on gifts for those we care for, consider shopping local when you are looking for those “perfect gifts”. Both the Crawl and Portobello West offer you the opportunity to support your local talent!

Hope to see you sometime in November!
