Always designing something, a little doily for my table, a table cloth for my mum as birthday present and so on. The business started with doing somebody a favour. Only a doily he wanted and than a table runner and another one and than came a friend of his and wanted the same. Since my little favours where taking up to much time I had to start my own little business and here I am, offering my service not only to a little island called Malta any more. I have been making Doilies and table runners for classic interior designs, modern living rooms and even big events. Resently I have delivered various sets for different rooms in a house and still, I find the time to try something new. All my products are made from 100% cotton and can be washed. But please, if you put them in the washing machine put them in a linen or cotton bag, so they keep their form and don't get torn apart by other laundry in the same wash. You may also iron everything on a cool cotton setting. Please don't put my products in a tumble dryer or a spin dryer and try not to bleach them. They will not survive. If you stick to this little things you will enjoy them for a very long time.

Inklings in Wood shop and studio are located on the picturesque Glooscap Trail, in the village of Maitland, Hants County, Nova Scotia's first Heritage Conservation District . This is the place for Nova Scotia turned   Bowles & Vases  We do artistic woodturning. Ben's unique turned pieces range from utilitarian salad bowls to artistic cremation urns and vases. A variety of wood is used,such as maple, birch, ash, beech, oak, elm and locust. Also fruitwoods such as cherry, plum, apple and pear. All woods are found in Nova Scotia. There are no toxic chemicals, stains, or paints used on any of the products. First sanding through 13 different grits of paper to a finish of 2000 grit. Two coats of tung oil are then applied to each piece. A hand-rubbed finish and the signature of the artist completes the process. Many people have an appreciation for the natural beauty of wood, perhaps, in part, because of its tactile and visual qualities. Visitors are always welcome to view the studio at their leisure. There is a great difference between the terms, wood working, wood carving and wood turning. Drop by and Ben will be happy to explain the difference.

I first started out in my own crafting business, by providing a component that another company painted and finished. It happened, that at that time, there was a big company that started out in jewelry and expanded to tourism products, in the Native American slot in the market. This company hired and paid Native Americans for their painting talents and signatures. Among the many things they turned out, was also ceramic pots. I came up with the brilliant idea of miniaturizing the same designs they were already succeeding with and we struck a business deal. I started out with one design and just kept coming up with new ideas, designing and making the mold for it, and presenting it to the company and they kept buying more and more of my designs until they had me so busy, I was working 18 hour days to keep up. Continue reading Check Out All The Possibilities. The dust was barely settled after a horrendous move, when I decided to come talk about it here. That?swhen I discovered my site was all messed up and I couldn?t post anything. Well, that had to wait. Too many things to do. For those who have ventured by recently, you probably noticed the site was broken. I have it up and running again and still working to set things right. I apologize for any inconvenience. There is more to the mold world than just molds for ceramic slip or molds for resins or plaster products. Ever hear of slump molds?  Judy's Corner  is all about crafter's in business.

The  Black Swamp Modelers  is a Special Interest Group (SIG) of the International Plastic Modelers Society/USA (IPMS). The larger organization, made "by modelers for modelers", is an international group of men and women who pursue the plastic modeling hobby. The interests of the IPMS reflect those of the plastic modeling community in general, so that the preponderance of model kits manufactured and sold tend to be the "Triple As" - Aircraft, Armor, and Automotive subjects. The Black Swamp Modelers SIG was organized in 2000 to provide a rallying place for those who build non-mainstream subjects: Science Fiction, Fantasy, Dinosaurs, and so on. An annual fifteen dollar dues allows the SIG to award the coveted Black Swamp Modelers trophy at various IPMS shows around the country, provide an annually-updated iron-on transfer (so everybody can have a "club shirt"), and maintain a web site that showcases the work of its members. The dues are pro-rated during the dues cycle, which begins in June.
