A 3 day display of local artists' and designers' creations was held at Heritage Hall (3102 Main, Vancouver) Sept. 16, 17, 18th. Spend on Trend was created in 2004 and continues to provide easy and exciting access to new trends in clothing, jewelry, leather, cards, photography, art and much more. Participating fabulists were: Art to Wear, Astrosatchel, Bronsino Designs, Brooklyn Designs, Button and Bauble, Carla Swope Jewels, Clutch Jewels, Dru's Design, Elroy, Filou Designs, Flightpath Designs, Five left, Irit Sorokin, L'arbre Love, Noei, Nostalgic links, Not Your Nana's Silver, Ola Design, Ole Originals, Piknic Designs, Pink Gargoyle Design Co., Revival link, Salts Clothing, Schaart Clothing Co., Toodle bunny, Vlaerie Gobert Jewelry and Vintage Creations.
The first 25 shoppers received a swag bag and were welcomed enthusiastically. The artists all had time and unlimited energy for each customer. The organized and attractive set up and spacious aisles made this a comfortable, friendly place to be. Fiona Louie, owner of Filou Designs is everywhere; I met her at One of a Kind in Toronto and Vancouver and many stores feature her beautiful jewelry. I love her eye for nature, very much reflected in her delicate necklaces and bracelets. A huge thanks to Nicole Stewart who introduced me to all of the artists at Spend on Trend and who keeps me posted on what is happening in Fashion and Design in Vancouver!
