2016 + thunderpeep


I love this time of year - although usually it's much colder and snowier - it's a time of reflection and new plans and exciting new projects. Yearly horoscopes and cleaning house. I...

Happy Winter and The Ice Maiden


It's here. My favourite time of the year. Winter. I'll pause while the majority of you grunt. All done now? Good. Because while it may have snowed for about 25 minutes here in...

That's a wrap!


Santa and I at the TEST Christmas Marketplace. Yesterday was my last show of 2015. I didn't do too many shows this year and the ones I did do were small and intimate, where I got...

Falling back into old habits


It's been tough lately to remind myself what I'm striving for. It's hard not to fall back into old habits and patterns. It's hard to stay focused and on your own path. Especially...

Holiday Freebie Friday


It's been awhile since I did a Friday download here, so I though I'd share this little Holiday organizer that I did up for a blog post over on Creative Clementine - some of my tips...

It's the busy shipping time


As I sit here in the middle of packaging orders, I realize that shipping deadlines for Holiday orders are coming up really fast. And you need to know all the details so you don't have...

Guess what? Today's my birthday!


WooHoo, I did it, I made it through another year! I usually always forget about this Throwback Thursday thing, and every now and again someone post some photo from my past and I think...

because, life happens


A few weeks ago I had coffee with my friend Katie. We chatted about life stuff, she gets me, these are always really great chats. I had made a comment about hitting your lowest...

Discovering what this NaNoWriMo is really all about


Do you know about NaNoWriMo? I kind of vaguely did. I have friends who are writers of novels that have discussed this before. I never thought of it. I write short fairy tales,...

Holiday show prepping


Halloween is over now. Us craft show folk are now free to start talking winter and holiday shows without the wrath of friends and family! As much as thunderpeep is still very much...

Scary stuff for you!


I love Halloween. It's a time to be goofy and have fun (and eat some candy) and scare folk. And I love to be scared. Any kind of staged Haunted House and I'm there (the un-staged...

This weekend, come visit me!


It's finally time to get my show legs back on. Yep, it's been a long while, but I have my first show of the year coming up this Saturday - the Etsy: Made in Canada show (check it out...

Things I Can't Do


Yeah, you read that correctly. But don't be sad for me. I actually kind of (totally) stole this post idea from the fabulous Wonder Forest who posted her list of can't do's on...

#FaceForward - 5 Lessons for future me


I saw this quote on a blog I follow (and apologize - I can't remember which one) and it really resonated with my state of being these days, but would future me still need to...

No one said being Adult was going to be easy


This post was started a few weeks ago and has just sat there. Literally with one first sentence (which is now gone). Taunting me to say more. But like everything else I do, this updated...

Nope, it's still Summer.


Some folks are complaining that this summer hasn't been summery enough this year. That's just crazy talk. It's hot and humid and sticky and sweaty here in Toronto.  It's...

Thanks for Great Night!


For anyone who came out to last nights party.... We had some serious fun, hung out with some other fab businesses on Danforth East (including one of our favourite restaurants The...

and we're ready to launch!


So, this week two pretty freaking exciting things happened. And it's only Tuesday. WHAT! I thought it was quite appropriate that my OMAM vinyl came the day before my books. An album...

A little bit of neglect never hurt my blog...


Because seriously I had shit to get done. Like mad rush – why do I always leave these things to the absolute last minute – lessons learned kind of shit. I know, I know, this is a...

some new Society 6 swag!


With all the new designs that came out this past weekend, I did a big update to the Society 6 shop. And I know I'm going on a shopping spree, the new work looks pretty damn great on...

Welcome to the same thunderpeep that now looks even more kickass!


Happy Midsummer! I hope it's nothing but sunshine and warm breezes where you are. Did you welcome the season of sunshine in last night? Hopefully in Fun Fashion {because really why...

everything old is new again


Well, maybe not EVERYTHING. Some things should stay old and in the past. Like acid wash jeans. Seriously what is up with them? Every now and again I see some random person wearing...

Fun Friday: Loving the Bees!


I'm super excited to have my friend Christine Pensa from Art That Moves visiting the blog today. Well, she's not actually sitting inside my blog, but if anyone can make that happen...

Speaking of books...


Change is good, but change is tough. I can't say things are all rosy and golden since my big tell-all post (did I really tell all? that just sounds so dramatic!) I'm really excited...

Forest Adventures


So, a couple of weekends ago it was something like the Great Escape over here at thunderpeep headquarters. It was a mad rush to get the hell out of the city (those pics above are...
