I have an obsession with visiting local markets and discovering makers from across Canada. I want to show you the talent that grows in this community. I'm so glad you're here - take a look around!

You know when you've been eyeing something on Instagram and finally get to see it IRL. ⁠
⁠
That was me when I got the chance to visit @pictusgoods yesterday. The store is even cuter than the photos I'd seen. There are beautiful fresh/dried flowers and plants everywhere. And they stock some of my favourite local brands like @wildcraftcare and @fortrollad.leather. I even love the colour of the floor! ⁠
⁠
If you're in the Junction, be sure to check out this local shop selling fresh blooms and handmade gifts by womxn founders. ⁠
⁠
The best part: They are actively conscious about not using floral foam (because it does not decompose) and avoiding the use of single-plastic as much as possible 🌍 ⁠

When I set out to take photos in this outfit, I didn't think I would get so many stares. ⁠
⁠
I mean, I'm wearing a scarf. Nothing new. ⁠
⁠
I soon figured out it was the colour I was wearing. People expect head-covering individuals to wear plain or indistinguishable clothing. Whereas, I want people to see me. ⁠
⁠
See me for being a proud Muslim, comfortable in my skin.⁠
⁠
What piece of clothing makes you feel bold?⁠

Do you feel nippish WFH? I do. ⁠
⁠
I get a hankering to snack All. The. Time. which is why I'm happy @lovegoodfats was one of the healthy snacks included in my free @story.cube subscription box. I can eat and eat and not be worried about excessive sugar consumption 🙂⁠
⁠
I love these bars because they actually taste good and not just sound good. This one was salted caramel in flavour but they literally have a bunch of others to choose from like cookies and cream 😀⁠
⁠
Order yours with code StoryCube20 for 20% off!⁠
⁠
PS. If you like snacking and want to try other healthy snacks and activities to feel less lonely sign up to receive your free subscription to StoryCube www.storycube.ca/sign-up. ⁠
As part of the subscription, I will be participating in a yoga class and a trivia night later this week! ⁠

My journey to supporting small businesses began quite early. ⁠
⁠
I used to run my own fashion accessories businesses, where I re-used scraps from garments or leftover items to create new hair accessories and jewelry. I participated in local markets and met other small business entrepreneurs. Being part of the local craft community was and is important to me. ⁠
⁠
By supporting these people, I'm supporting the dreams of an individual or household and in turn their futures and the futures of their kids. Most importantly, I'm supporting real people. ⁠
⁠
Think for a moment if these quaint and quirky local shops didn't exist. Where would you go for artisan goods or one-of-a-kind pieces? Local talent is full of creativity and we need to celebrate it. ⁠
⁠
This is especially important right now and in the coming months. Lots of my favourite shops and eateries have closed because of the pandemic, which is heart-breaking. This weekend, try to make a difference with your voice and money. ⁠
⁠
I'm sharing 6 ways you can support local small businesses and why I do in a blog post. Link in my bio for your reading pleasure.
