We have already sold our live-edge Christmas ornaments at the Parkland Fall Night Market, so that secret isn't a secret anymore. But watch for more designs! Coming soon to the web store.

We also have another beautiful (and, as always, awesome) Christmas item coming up soon. Watch the "Latest Products" page for its launch.

Have a look at version two of our Anything Tiles at Anything Tiles. Now with walls! Even better than the first version.

News:

November 2024: We had a great show at the very local Onoway Farmer's Market on 14 November. Very many thanks to those who dropped by and those who shopped. We love to see people get enthused about our geeky items. They "get" us and we appreciate it. This was a smaller show than other shows we have been at but the customers were great and supportive as always. This was a last-minute decision and we're glad we went because so many people bought "our awesome".

October 2024: We had another successful show at the Parkland Fall Night Market on 04-5 October 2024. Our new products, the multi-layer live-edge Christmas tree ornaments were well received. They come in three varieties. There were good crowds of shoppers at the show and many interesting tables. A big thank-you to the many friends and family who dropped by to say hello and buy some of our lovely products.

July 2024: Calgary's Indigem Rock and Gem Show held on Friday through Sunday, 19-21 July 2024 was even more successful than Edmonton's. Even more vendors and customers and our slate was even more popular. Big thanks to Green's Rock and Lapidary and Indigem for making it possible for us to have a booth at the show. And many thanks to those who dropped by to see and purchase our wide variety of laser engraved slate. Definitely our most popular item was the "phases of the moon" slate, though many other pieces also did well.

July 2024: Our very first show was a "smashing" success. Our live-edged engraved slate was popular with the public. This was at the Edmonton Indigem Rock and Gem Show on Friday and Saturday, 12-13 July 2024. Thanks to everyone who dropped by to say hello, buy awesome engraved slate, and spend some fascinating time with our hermit crabs who were showing off our terrarium slate.
