CHRISMUKKAH FESTIVITIES

After one too many sugar candies and spoonfuls of icing we decided to shoot a Holiday catalog look for Beckerman Biteplate . So much fun and we even skyped missing sister Chloe in L.A.

MUSIC OBSESSION OF THE MOMENT: LOCAL NATIVES

                                                                                                                                     photo by Kyle Johnson
A great find while at the Edward Sharpe concert ........Local Natives. I came in a little late and just caught a couple of their songs but I had to find out who they were. Now, fully immersed in their music I am hard-pressed to find a song of theirs that I don't like. Their song  "Airplanes" is highly addictive. Hope they come back to Toronto! 

ONE LESS PAPER CUP

This was a cup I designed for the One Less Paper Cup Fundraiser for Grounds for Health Charity.  This fundraiser was organized by Reunion Island Coffee who are extremely passionate about maintaining sustainable products and giving back to the Third World countries where their coffee is harvested. Grounds For Health is an organization that works in developing countries to provide early detection and treatment of cervical cancer, a leading cause of death among women in these parts of the world. 

BECKERMAN BITEPLATE FUN!!!!!!!

This past Sunday we went to the St. Lawrence market for a day of treasure finding. The girls brought their doggy Cubby. I have already asked if they can clone him for me. I think he looks like Mr. Winkles!

I am a huge fan of Yvonne Eijkenduijn and her Yvestown blog. I think I came across her blog about three years ago while obsessing and searching for anything relating to Cath Kidston. I love the way that Yvonne balances Kidstons colorful patterns with white walls and pastel painted furniture. So simplistic yet whimsical. 

BECKERMAN BITEPLATE FUN!!!!!!!

The girls and I went to the most amazing Teddy Bear show this past weekend. They surprised me at the end of the show with a vintage Muffy Bear, Czarina Muffina. I told them how I used to collect Muffy Bears when I was little. I might have to start that collection again! After the show we frolicked through Edwards Gardens enjoying the pretty weather. For more details go to Biteplate.
