I did want to tell you how much I enjoyed the Paper, Patch & Pin show at Heritage Hall. I was so impressed with the variety of products from the vendors, and loved that it was focused on paper/stationery, rubber stamps, pins & patches!

Meet a maker bringing so much heart to TOO CUTE ✨
Meet Lumi Pachi @lumi.pachi. Their work centres on super cute handmade candles, with market-day finds including Candle Holders, Matchboxes + Stickers.
These candles are not your typical “just some wax in a container” candles but are heavily crafted piece-by-piece, each one made with care and intention. Each one so cute, you’ll debate even lighting them! All Lumi Pachi candles are created by hand by a JCA (Japan Candle Association) certified candle maker!
Find them at TOO CUTE Pop-Up Market while you wander through art, stationery, accessories, snacks, workshops, Mini Makers, and so many local treasures.
