Early closing: Seasons Show 2013

Apologies to anyone who stopped by to see Harobed Designs during the afternoon of November 24.
Due to a  situation , not of our creation, but affecting my health adversely, I closed up the booth early. Show management were not responsive to dealing with the issue, although it breached  a number of health and safety laws.

Counting down to the holidays/November Shows!

Hard to believe but we're now in the pre-holiday season and, at Harobed Designs, we've got a number of shows booked for November.












We've been hard at work, making lots of unique items that make perfect gifts. We're using some "teaser" photos around the edges of this post, to give you a taste of what we'll be offering - while supplies last!










This year, we're putting details about all our shows in a single blog post, so you can refer to a single post for any you'd like to attend.









Here is the calendar in a nutshell (see below for location and time details):


Sunday, November 17: Doane House Hospice, Newmarket

Friday November 22-Sunday November 24, Seasons Christmas Show, Toronto

Monday, November 25, Royal St. George's College, Toronto

Friday, November 29, United Way Craft Show, Newmarket




As always, some of these shows are fundraisers for good causes, so they offer an excellent way to stock up on your gifts while contributing to the community.


As for Harobed Designs, many of our one-of-a-kind items have been made from re-purposed fabric, trim and ribbon remnants, materials that would otherwise have to be discarded.




We'll have a selection of aprons in both adult and children's sizes,... luxury hangers - again for both adults and children... tea cozies... ladies vests... soft toys... and more. Exact items offered may vary from show to show.




Which would you rather offer your guests this holiday season...?

...This?




Or this...?



Stock up on some of our luxury hangers and wow guests when they arrive for your celebration!
