Up, up and away!

Alison Moyet said it best when she sang “The only way is up, baby!”

Our feet may be firmly planted in our upcycled boots, but our heads are in the clouds thanks to this article in Westjet’s online magazine, “Up!”

Shel Zolkewich put together such a lovely piece about us that I literally blushed when I first read it. Your reaction might not be as pink-cheeked as mine, but I guarantee that it’ll make you want to stop in and see what’s new!

MREC in the Press!

With all of the excitement of the past couple weeks, I completely forgot to post a link to our shout-out in Connie Tamoto's Free Press column!

In case you missed seeing us in print, here is the digital version:
So long, Summer.



Those with an eagle-eye might notice a couple errors/omissions, but we are absolutely thrilled to be mentioned in Connie's column. Hopefully she'll stay in touch and come back soon to feature all of our amazing designers!

It's party time!

Yesterday I introduced you to a shiny-new line of eco-friendly silver by Winnipeg’s own jake + cleo. Well, if that wasn’t exciting enough, today I would like to invite you to the official launch party for the collection!

The event takes place this Thursday, from 7 – 9pm, at the shop.

There will be food, music, and an opportunity to get a first-look at the collection and meet its talented designers!

We hope to see you there!

Welcome jake + cleo!

We are so excited to announce the arrival of a new line of locally-made, earth-conscious silver jewelry to the shop!

jake + cleo is a merging of clean lines and whimsy; organization and free thinking; squares and circles. The result is fine and sterling silver jewelry that is modern, eco-friendly and will have everyone asking, "Where did you get that??"



jake + cleo fine and sterling silver jewelry is organically designed and handcrafted to fit your lifestyle and feed your passion for unique, eco-chic adornments.

But, how is it GREEN?

~ jake + cleo .999 fine silver starts with a pat of precious metal clay, which contains 100% RECLAIMED silver.
~ all scraps, filings and dust are captured to be used in future designs: RECYCLING creates zero production waste.
~ your jewelry is wrapped in 100% recycled tissue and placed in a handmade ORGANIC cotton pouch.



jake + cleo is designed and created in Winnipeg, Canada and available at the Mozy Rue ECO Collective and online in the jake + cleo Etsy shop.

The New Kids in the Shop

Have you met the Kiddlebug Kids?

Kiddlebug Kids are one-of-a-kind dolls; made with love, imagination and humour right here in Winnipeg. Each one has its own personality and are as unique as the real-life kids who inspire them.

We are so happy to have Kiddlebug Kids at the Mozy Rue ECO Collective! You can pick up your own Kid here at the store, or through their Etsy shop.

...I wonder what they get up to when we're closed...

So sweet!

The other day, one of Winnipeg's fave cakeologists stopped by the shop to check things out. Being the sweetie that she is, she arrived with treats! I wasn't there to partake (boo!), but by way of a couple sticky-fingered text messages that I received that night (sure, rub it in), I heard the cupcakes were absolutely delish.

Thanks, Pam!!!



PS...next time someone says they are stopping by the store with baked-goods, I am going to drop what I am doing, pull the fire alarm, and high-tail it over there...stopping only to pick up Em on the way, of course!

100

100 days until Christmas?? What? I didn't believe it, so I counted; and, yup, it's true!

I better start making my lists! Things I want...things I need...things I gotta have...oh, and things to buy for family and friends, of course.
