Coves Creations - Hand Crafted Felted Wool Mobiles
Martine "Cove" Camryn draws her artistic inspiration from the beautiful nature she has right at her doorstep, namely the local beaches and forest trails of Kaslo.
She lives in Kaslo with her partner, Peter, and their 2 young boys, Dominik & Otter; and spends many hours a day foraging on the trails and beaches of Kaslo while picking up sticks to throw to the other love of her life, an Australian Kelpie, named Kelpie.
Before her new life in the Kootenays, Martine had never done any kind of crafting or artwork before. According to Martine, "Moving to the Kootenays catalyzed her creative process and artistic eye to awaken!" Prices range from $19 to $85 for each truly unique piece.
Colibri Snack Bags
Harkening back to the dark ages of 2008 - before the Zero-waste movement was really a thing - “The Sling Sisters” Sandra O’Malley and Lori Hawkins (who are actually sisters) started sewing baby slings that were prized by their community. They had babies, their friends had babies, so it made sense. Their guiding principle was simply to produce products that were safe, convenient for young families and that didn’t fall apart after a year of use. When their kids grew older their products evolved too. Baby slings were off the roster and reusable snack bags were added. But these aren’t your average snack bag.
They chose specialized zippers that have been tested and certified to be safe and easy for little and big fingers alike. They handpick quality fabric in fashionable prints and stitched them together so precisely that every bag will last years of use and washing. And these bags are tested and certified ensuring they meet both FDA and Health Canada standards for food safety. Did we mention they last for years?
In 2014 the Sling Sisters Inc. was re-branded as Colibri Canada. Their determined focus on quality had also made them a forerunner in the Zero-waste movement. Through happy circumstances and a commitment to manufacturing the best product they can, Colibri has been helping to define the landscape of reusable, household products ever since.
