41st Annual London Christmas Craft Show

Sugar Rush Stained Glass was a vendor at the 41st Annual London Christmas Craft Show.

I’d been thinking of taking part in the London Christmas Craft Show for a few years now and finally did. I displayed a variety of stained glass panels, suncatchers, and ornaments in a wide variety of styles including traditional, contemporary, and playful.

Unique Gifts, Sweets & Treats

Unique Gifts, Sweets & Treats – Nov. 22

Unique Gifts, Sweets & Treats was a pre-Christmas shopping event hosted by Lynn Grushka in her beautiful home in London, Ontario on Sunday November 22nd.

I had the opportunity to beta test the new display stands, created by my husband Lionel, and they worked very well. A few more tweaks and they will be perfect. Since I knew I would have plenty of space to display them I created several new stained glass pieces for this show. Below are just three of them – Sweet DreamsRiver Rocks and Crazy Quilt Star.

Special thank you to my dear friend Denise for all the assistance with this show. Couldn’t have done it without her.


London Artists’ Studio Tour 2015

I have attended the London Artist’s Studio Tour for many years. This past year (2015) I was fortunate to be a part of this great annual event. I had the opportunity to meet and talk with so many wonderful people.

In the 2015 Tour there were 23 artists’ studios, 9 brand new to the Tour, in neighbourhoods all over the city – an unparalleled opportunity to meet artists, view artwork, see inside their studios and ask questions! I hope you had the chance to attend. If not keep your eyes open for next year’s Tour. Sugar Rush won’t be part of the tour but many others will, you won’t be disappointed.
