Deck The Hall - Meet the Vendor! Seven Acres Silve

Deck The Hall - Meet the Vendor! Seven Acres Silver.

"Hi there! Thanks for checking out Seven Acres Silver, I’m Asia, the one woman show behind it. I was born in the beautiful coastal town of Bella Coola B.C., which is where my love and appreciation for mountains and salt water come from, and the explanation for why after being raised in the Okanagan, I ended up on Vancouver Island. From a young age I have always had a fascination with jewelry, and more specifically, silver jewelry.

In 2017 I decided to take my fascination one step further, and learnt how to make it. Building up my own small studio here in the Cowichan Valley along the way. Since then it has become a passion of mine, and even turned into a small business. I think the inspiration for a lot of my work comes from
my love of western fashion, and my Nuxalk heritage. I love making statement pieces, with the focus being on the beautiful stones I am lucky enough to work with, turquoise being one of my favorites."

Deck The Hall - Meet the Vendor! Pretty Little Things.

"Pretty Little Things was started from a love for all things handmade. As the Owner & Designer behind my little home based business, I learned to crochet and knit from my Grandma as a child, and that love has carried forward into every item I make today.

Made with care and attention to detail in Shawnigan Lake BC, the Merino Wool used to create my luxury hats & slippers are ethically and sustainably sourced putting an emphasis on quality over quantity. Making cozy, unique items that people can enjoy for years to come will always be my passion.

When I'm not knitting all the hats, I can be found spending time with my husband and two kids, gardening, or working on more designs ♡ My handmade items can be found on my Etsy online store at www.prettylittlethingsvi.etsy.com"

Deck The Hall - Meet the Vendor! ABCrochet-Duncan

"My name is Andrea Gallacher and I taught myself crochet in my early twenties. This seemed to have unleashed a hidden talent I never knew I had. I am born and raised in the Cowichan Valley and my full time job is an archaeologist.

I crochet all year, sometimes making for myself but mostly in preparation for the fall and winter months. I love the outdoors and being bundled up in handmade makes, so it came natural to me to focus on accessories for people to wear outside to keep them warm.

Over the years, I have started to design my own patterns and have also re-taught myself how to knit. My business offers a lot of options of fun colours and styles for all ages to wear while enjoying their outdoor adventures."

Deck The Hall - Meet the Vendor! Island Guy with Chai.

"Island Guy With Chai was born out of a love for chai. While on vacation in 2014 we experienced some amazing chai. But when we returned home, we couldn’t find a product that came close to our experience. This propelled us into exploring the world of chai and creating the perfect product ourselves. We’ve handcrafted several full-flavor chai varieties for discerning palates like yours. If you have a love for chai, then give one our chai blends a try!"
