Our maple leaf earrings and pins are finally live on our website! 🍁 Each piece is designed and made in our studio in Ontario. It took us way too long to list them, but the past few weeks have been an emotional rollercoaster, and productivity took a hit. #BuyCanadian #canada #canadiansmallbusiness

In light of current affairs, I think it is more important than ever to support local Canadian owned and operated businesses.

Small businesses that relied on duty-free U.S. shipping wonder if they can survive without it | CBC News

As of Friday, Canada's small businesses can no longer ship small packages to the U.S. duty-free — and some online sellers are worried that their companies won't survive the hit.

Side Quest Wood

@sidequestwood.bsky.social

My plants were not doing well this winter but my window sill was a bit too small to safely hold them, so I built a simple shelf to extend the depth.

A photo of a cedar shelf attached to a window sill, it's got house plants on it. #woodworking #furniture #decor #interiordecorating #maker #canadiansmallbusiness #canadianmaker #smallbusiness #etsy #plants #houseplants #pothos

A photo of a cedar shelf attached to a window sill, covered in house plants and a totodile plushie. The wood has knots and sap wood for a two tone look.

A photo of the underside of the shelf showing the two maple brackets holding it to the window sill.
