Anam Cara Handcrafts
We are a small group of family and friends who are drawn to the pleasure of creating jewellery and other items from fabric, glass, felt, fused glass, copper, beads and recycled materials. Meaning of Anam Cara:
In the Celtic tradition, there is a beautiful understanding of love and friendship referred to as anam cara. Anam is the Gaelic word for soul and cara is the word for fr

iend. So anam cara in the Celtic world is the “soul friend.” This friendship means that you are joined in an ancient and eternal way with the “friend of your soul.”
(Based on thoughts of John O’Donohue, author)

Figured out how to make silverware snails with tumbled stones that I got at the Bancroft Rockhound Gemboree last weekend. These ones are quartz, obsidian, amethyst and apatite. Looking forward to creating more.

What a happy day! I found an entire box of Harmony, one of my favourite silverware patterns released by Rogers in 1938. Many thanks to one of my favourite thrift shops, Vintage on Hastings in Bancroft. Looking forward to making some treasures for the Christmas markets. Never too early to get started!

It’s a wrap! The last show of the spring season at the West Rouge Community Centre Parking lot was fabulous. Luck was with us as the forecasted rain never turned up. Thank you to all my friends who dropped by. I appreciate your support and encouragement. Back to the workshop over the summer to focus on developing my skills in making things from silver trays.
