Toronto Artisans: Ali Laure

I originally came across Ali Laure jewelry in my daily check of all of my favourite blogs. Upon clicking over to her Facebook page and Etsy shop I quickly became obsessed with the pieces, so when V and I sat down to decide who we wanted to work with next Ali Laure was on the top of my list. Naturally I was beyond excited when designer Ali Clarke, of Ali Laure, agreed to chat with the ladies of On Crawford St. and give us a peek into one of our new favourite local businesses.

Toronto Artisans: Pillow Talk

H and I first came across Pillow Talk last summer at Dundas West Fest, a local street festival celebrating one of Toronto's coolest neighbourhoods. Pillow Talk focuses on hand-painted, custom pillows created by interior designers Melanie Brown and Robin Schurman. We were lucky enough to pick their brains about design, their amazing product, and starting up their own business.
