  1. Greenroots Gallery: Art, Nature & Creative Business in One Space

    I still remember my first visit. It was 2023, and I walked into Greenroots for a meeting with fellow creatives alongside the owner. From the moment I set foot there, I knew this space was different. There’s a quiet energy that surrounds you as soon as you arrive—something that feels both inspiring and peaceful at the same time.

  3. When I saw a gorgeous knife in the hands of a local chef, I had to ask about it.

    Turns out it was a custom-forged knife made by Tom Stegner, a knifesmith here in Kitchener! Needless to say, you *know* I wanted to talk (and write) about him for my CBCKW Food column ☺️

    And I got knife tips (😉) for the home cook, from Conestoga College's Sean Duffy :)

  4. Just 45 days until the big Salem Etsy Team Handmade Holiday Market. 150 vendors (including me) at the Oregon State Fairgrounds. We've had thousands of attendees in past years, buying every kind of handmade goods. Free parking, free admission, door prizes and more. I'll have lots of new work for you. More details as we get closer to the day. #handmademarket #MastoArt #holidaymarket #salemoregon #buyhandmade #buylocal #pastpresentarts #christofmaupin #hotglass #lampworkglass #artyoucanwear
