If there ever was a time and a need, it would be swiftly approaching.

Just 6 weeks.

The choice is Yours.

As you transition…

Proud of my father’s roots arrived into Nova Scotia, settled in New Brunswick and arrived in USA, in The County.

Thank You Canada

America needs to re-read your signage and the history books.

PS. I was named after my grandfather, that was born in New Brunswick, Canada (our neighbor).

🇨🇦 No matter where you live in Canada, we all share the same maple leaf.

From the Atlantic provinces to the Prairies, Ontario, Quebec, British Columbia and the North, every part of Canada has its own identity, traditions and stories.

We may have different landscapes, different communities and different ways of life — but there are also things that connect us.

Our farmers.
Our workers.
Our families.
Our communities.
And the maple leaf we all recognize. 🍁

Canada’s strength has always come from the many communities that make up this country.

Different provinces. Different stories. One Canada.

What’s one thing about your province or territory that you think makes Canada special? 🇨🇦👇

I can’t quite decide…

being Dennis The Menace

or

Tom Terrific today?

Haircut on Mondee, but Henry Thomas showed up to help with the right choice.

I decided on Tomas Terrific!

Open today and tomorrow with some amazing in-store specials from 11 to 5.

PS. Finally shook the nonstop headaches after 1+ week.

Finland needs to re-happen for me.

Just sayin’

Does it not figure that I learn of this huge loss to American culture, four days after the fact?

RIP Peter

You were an impact to me.

I have never been much afraid of color, design and forward thinking.

My biggest regret/challenge on my path and adventure has been stalled/paused use of talent and expression in my head.

It has been in the center of my chest since childhood.

I regret not mastering much needed confidence with a musical instrument and a pushing a limit in one or multi forms of creativity.

In the era of the 60’s/70’s, I appreciated all forms of music, fashion and individualism, but paused.

Thank goodness, I saw a ton of live performances, pursued the ever-changed apparel and jewelry industry, learned quality versus quantity, brick & mortar sales and merchandising, using an embroidery instrument paired with the passion of natural fabrics.

I laugh often about the concept of late bloomer.

Being a fiber creator, a music lover, a small biz owner and too detailed human turned out just fine.

Thanks to all the artists, musicians, business owners and amazing clients that helped on the wonderful journey I was given.

We lost the King of Pop Art, Peter Max, on September 14th at the age of 88. Max’s art was bold, bright and totally unique in the ‘60s. Rest in peace.

One of my favored happy places across The Big Pond.
