July Update 2025
Good day, my dears,
July is the month when we celebrate Pride in Nova Scotia! I went to my second Pride Parade this year. I didn't cry teas of happiness like last year, but I did have a fantastic time! It was an amazing day for it!
This month has been a really productive and happy one for me! I've been busy working on new art pieces, vending at markets, and applying to future markets!
Markets:
I'm still vending at the Funky Flea Market at the Halifax Exhibition Grounds every other Sunday or so. It's been a lovely time connecting with other vendors and people. This coming Sunday, July 27th, I'll be vending at a new event. The Ren Faire Market at the Halifax Brewery Market! I'm really excited for this one because it'll be at a new location for me, with a bunch of amazing artist and creators.

New Pieces:
I've been working steadily on more Feminine Pride pieces, based off of plants. I plan on creating prints for each plant spirit's full piece, as well as stickers from small pieces. I absolutely love creating Feminine Pride pieces. They bring me so much joy and happiness. I originally created these pieces as a way to bring a sense of healing and empowerment for myself, as a survivor of SA and abuse. I always hope that these pieces bring others similar feelings of empowerment and love.
On top of these Feminine Pride pieces, I also now have chainmail Pride pieces, from earrings to small necklaces! It's been really fun expanding upon what I have to available, seeing how else I can provide people with ways to feel included, seen, and heard.

Future Pieces:
I still have many more projects to come! From working on more of my Jellyfish Feminine Pride pieces, to creating more jewelry with spikes, suncatchers, and more!
Each connection I make along the way, each new friend, keeps motivating and inspiring me to keep on moving forward. It genuinely feels so amazing to be able to have a full time job, and create artwork I love and enjoy, and then to be able to share it with others. It's something I only ever dreamed of when I first started along this journey.
And no matter what, I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for all of you I've met along the way. Thank you so much for being here, for being who you are, and for your support and encouragement!
