Meet the Maker Week Day 6: Shop Small. 👉🏻⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️🔴 . ALL 👏 OF 👏 THE 👏 MITTENS! 🧶 🧤 $20! PM for deets . Shopping small means you are supporting someone carving out their niche, doing what they want instead of doing what they should. It means being able to work on a flexible schedule to account for time lost, above all it means allowing them to pursuit their calling. . @tangledwebknits is having a sale at the Bronx Park Community Centre, I am super proud of them! Making and providing warm for our coooooool winters. . #makersgonnamake #meethemakerweek #meetthemakerweek2019 #makesplain #makesplaining #makesplainer #skinthsolutions #howitsmade #smallbusinesssaturday #shoplocal #shopsmallbusiness #manitoba #winnipeg #manitobamade #madeincanada (at Winnipeg, Manitoba) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5xuhYJgwn-/?igshid=1lkad748a33h3

Meet the Maker Week Day 5: Help! 👉🏻⚪️⚪️⚪️⚪️🔴⚪️ . What should I make next? Is there anything you’ve thought about? I am running out of juice trying to predict what others want and need your help! . #makersgonnamake #meethemakerweek #meetthemakerweek2019 #makesplain #makesplaining #makesplainer #skinthsolutions #howitsmade https://www.instagram.com/p/B5u_v_iglDi/?igshid=1gej5r6fp46yd

Meet the Maker Week Day 4 : Where else? 👉🏻⚪️⚪️⚪️🔴⚪️⚪️ . This year I am taking part in the North Forge Holiday party sale. North Forge (formerly Assentworks) has been a pivotal resource for me. Nearly since it’s inception, North Forge has allowed me to play with toys that I otherwise would not be able to afford. In turn, I brought a lot of my skills back to the community at large there, training and helping those who needed it. . This sale will take place on Thursday, December 11 at the U of Manitoba Smart Park, where North Forge’s business incubator offices are. Not to be mistaken with the Fab Lab which is located in the Exchange. . This is a great place to debut my new leather working logo. The needle, thread, and scissors are pretty self explanatory, however the cube is representative of a gold brick. The arrow represents accuracy, precision and speed and the three lines below the skull are my tendency to #makesplain what I am doing in terms of materials (which is nicely drawn as a roll of stock). . #makersgonnamake #meethemakerweek #meetthemakerweek2019 #makesplain #makesplaining #makesplainer #skinthsolutions #howitsmade #sewing #cordura #origami #textile #folding https://www.instagram.com/p/B5tIcUfAm3o/?igshid=rfegzyld379v

Meet the Maker Week Day 3 : Behind the Scenes 👉🏻⚪️⚪️🔴⚪️⚪️⚪️ . @skinthsolutions has been a mainstay in my life coming up on close to 10 years now. In that time, I am still learning new things. Today, in this Behind the Scenes…or rather How It’s Made kind of video, I revisit an old video where I make a L-Shield, one of my most successful and most ordered products. Things have changed slightly, but it’s more a matter of making things go faster rather than differently. . Mid video, you’ll see how origami has influence my work, compressing and hiding seams where I can. . Hope you enjoy! *please excuse the messy shop in the background* #makersgonnamake #meethemakerweek #meetthemakerweek2019 #makesplain #makesplaining #makesplainer #skinthsolutions #howitsmade #sewing #cordura #origami #textile #folding https://www.instagram.com/p/B5qHZfCAm0W/?igshid=1kq3r3zx917j1
