T'winkle Vendor Feature - RadJuli

And now, for your unlimited enjoyment, another delightful installment of the event we like to call the Vendor Feature.

************************************************************************************


Vendor Feature #8


RadJuli


Who are you?
I am RadJuli

What three words best describe your work?
Ideas Made Flesh.

What inspires you?
I'm inspired by the city (whichever one I'm currently in), music of all kinds, the ocean, Chinese Food, sunsets, laughter and the smell of leather.

What are your favourite materials to use?
I love using the soft skins of ungulates, and sometimes seal.  And I just adore a really heavy, elaborate brocade.

When you are not creating, what do you like to do?
I love playing drums, cooking and eating with friends, and staring at the sea.

T'winkle Vendor Feature - Labyrinth Leather Craft


Hello again!  Here we go with one week left until the first ever T'winkle Market!  

Sounds like it's time for another vendor feature so you can get a little taste of what clever creations will be in store for all of us come April 18th!

Vendor Feature #4 


Labyrinth Leather Craft


Who are you?
I am Labyrinth Leather Craft.  More specifically,
Amanda Bennett...more like a weird genetic hybrid
of the two.  My business has "become" me.

What do you create?
Leather goods with a strong
focus on cuffs, belts and wallets.


What creative thing do you want to learn
or try next?
Smithing of one form or another.  Leather work
and leather dye has removed all pretense
of keeping my hands dirt free.

When you are not creating, what do you
like to do?
I enjoy a spot of apartment gardening.
For me it is a vicious process of planting,
nurturing, playing god, and then having 
the poor things die on me.  It is strangely
theraputic.

What music do you like to listen to while
creating?
I kinda enter nirvana when I'm creating, but if I had to fathom a guess then the music of Cirque De Soleil
and Delirium.
