Gloria Gilhuly

"Jewelry by Gloria"
Gloria Gilhuly

After taking a few classes I began making jewellery approx. 4 years ago. Specializing in handmade necklaces, bracelets and earrings. I find it to be very calming and it wakes up my creative side. Seeking out special, gorgeous gemstones, unique beads and findings is very interesting to me. My aim is to provide quality pieces of jewellery at affordable prices.

I also knit long, fringed scarves and necklaces in a ladder yarn that looks bejewel-ed.

Thank you for taking the time to check my market web page and I invite you to come visit my booth.

For more information please email me at beadsbygg@yahoo.ca



Cathy Cooper

Cathy Cooper

When I was 8 years old my grandmother taught me how to knit and crochet. For many years I made gifts for my family and friends, five years ago my mother finally convinced me to start selling at craft shows, and now a day doesn't go by without me picking up the needles, it is my passion.

I sell many items at the market including crocheted oven door tea towels, dish cloths, slippers, scarves and children΄s sweaters. I also make a variety of newborn gifts such as blankets, layettes and hat & bootie sets.

I hope to see you on Saturday.

For more information please email me at craftycathycoop@yahoo.ca



Veronique Stefanica

Véronique Stéfanica

Véronique is a professional artist and art educator. She was born and educated in France. Her artistic aspiration brought her to Canada. In 1985 she graduated from Richard Robinson School of Fashion Design which taught her pattern-making, haute-couture sewing and fashion illustration. She now lives in North Gower and works full time out of her studio there.

Through a colourful "naïve" style, Véronique΄s paintings radiate a sense of joy and humor. Viewers of her work are often observed breaking into a smile as they discover the subtle details, not always apparent at first glance. Véronique΄s paintings are a "breath of fresh air", vibrant, full of life, and in their childlike innocence, take many of us back to a simpler and gentler time.

Véronique can be reached at primrose.path@sympatico.ca
or at 613-489-3795
