40 Days - Second Installment - Recreated Designs at the Gowling Christmas & Holiday Craft Show

Today is another one of those lucky days where we give you an EXTRA sneak peek into the amazing vendors you will find at our craft show on November 14th at W.E. Gowling Public School.

Recreated Designs

The motto at Recreated Designs is reclaimed + repurposed = recreated. I love to recreated anything that has been discarded and is no longer useful in it's current state. All that I do at Recreated Designs involves paint to remake a wide variety of items into beautiful, functional and affordable home decor and furniture.






Only 5 Days Left!!


We are in the final stages of our Adopt a School Campaign - 

Only 5 days left!!

41 Days: This is Sew Crazy!

41 days and counting down to the Gowling Christmas & Holiday Craft Show. We just have to share this awesome vendor with you - it's Sew Crazy!

Sew Crazy

'Sew Crazy' has grown from my passions of sewing, recycling and minimizing my environmental footprint. I love to create one of a kind items that are fun to wear, comfortable, and washable! I use previously loved garments and fabrics, combine them in original ways and give them a new life. No two items are ever the same as I rarely use patterns and my fabric choices are always unique. I also create original items for people who have a special garment they have been saving but want it transformed into something new.
