Ta Da!

So there you have it, our beautiful Seasons Studio floor is finished. This picture is just the corner of the room but it really shows off the floor. We’re just waiting on the mirrors to be cut and then the room will be complete (which is extremely exciting). The art room is also slowly coming together…stay tuned for some photographs of the progress.

And so it begins..

We’re slowly starting to get settled into our new location. After much frustration and aggravation we finally have our phone line in place. The kitchen is almost ready and as for the art room, well that’s definitely got quite a bit of work to be done still. This weekend we are starting to put in the floors for the downstairs studio. Here are some before shots….stay tuned for the after shots. Registrations for Fall are starting to come in, which is very exciting! Register today to guarantee a spot in one of our classes.

Our Day At Local Love

Love Local at the Evergreen Brickworks was such a hit! We had lots of fun running our colouring booth and truly enjoyed interacting with such wonderful families. We had tons of kiddies come out and colour while parents got a chance to look at all the amazing merchandise. We were so impressed with the turnout, despite the morning rain and we’re pleased people didn’t let a few little rain drops stop their Love Local experience. Here are some pics from our fun filled day!

All Things Mini

Not only will we be offering making minis this year, we’ll also be offering making mini cakes too! If you sign up for our adult baking class you can learn how to make these fantastic, little mini cakes. Not only are they adorable, but they are perfect for one serving size and are great to serve at your next dinner party! One cake’s flowers were made with gumpaste and the other with modelling chocolate. Each has its own benefits however. Gumpaste tends to dry out extremely quickly and will sometimes crack. Gumpaste is often used to make flowers and decorative pieces as it can be rolled out very thin. Modelling chocolate is similar to a clay like substance and is easier to smooth out your seems with. Both are very pliable materials and are fantastic to use for decorating cakes.    

Love Local

On June 4th, 2011 Seasons Family Centre will be hosting a fantastic colouring table at Love Local Show. Wondering what exactly Love Local is? Well Love Local is an unprecedented, one-day, outdoor retail showcase featuring fashion, beauty, art and crafts made and/or designed in Toronto. Love Local takes everything you love about the old-school craft show and transforms it into a cultural boutique event where Torontonians can shop, explore and mingle with local artisans. It will be an amazing event, so come on out, shop around while your kids do some colouring! Visit www.lovelocal.ca for more details.
