It’s a party! It’s a craft show! It’s Make It Vancouver!

This weekend, join the Handmade Revolution! Make It! Vancouver promises a grand ol’ time at this artisan market with a twist. Not only will you be able to shop a wide range of one-of-a-kind, eco-friendly, handmade pieces from across Canada (fashion, jewelry, home decor, art, etc.), top DJs will also keep you groovin’ from table to table.

Some of the great BC talents to be showcased at Make It!:

Catalyst Reaction – Love this line of handcrafted leather accessories with West Coast-inspired designs.

Christy Feaver Designs – An amazing line of metalwork jewelry. It’s hard to take your eyes off these!

Crass & Sugar – Artist Jill MacLeod uses a variety of materials such as bamboo, wool, metal wire and Japanese washi paper to craft these sweet and colourful designs.

Inkspoon– This line of custom, intricately hand-screened clothing seamlessly fuses art and fashion.

Lemon Park – Dramatic flair meets cool elegance. Made with a combination of semi-precious stones and silver, every piece of jewelry in this collection is an eye-popping style statement.

Revamped by Jenn – Cute purses and clutches hand-made with mostly reclaimed (vintage, sample or remnant) fabrics.

And the bonus? This holiday season, you can give unique handmade gifts even if you’re not crafty! That’s my plan anyway.
