ON SCENE: One of a Kind Show recap

Posted on December 14, 2012 by Elaine

And another show is done! This year’s Christmas One of a Kind Show did not disappoint! I took a lot of pictures so this will just be a recap post and later Ashley and I will share our purchases 😉

If you weren’t in the Christmas spirit before your first steps into the Direct Energy Centre and seeing this gorgeous tree.

Of course my first stop is always to see Dara at her booth Dara Dot Designs 🙂 I always love seeing all the new colours and designs Dara puts together each season!

Bamboo Lily is always a must see too! I bought a few things but can’t show them here because they are gifts!
If you need baby and kids clothes Lil’s are the CUTEST!

A new discovery and new favourite of mine is Dot and Lil. I bought some items for myself and for gifts!

mehoi was a such a cool booth. The cutest prints and buttons, I picked up a few for little quirky gifts!

U.S.E.D. was there again and their bags were creating a huge buzz!

I’m so glad I discovered Miranda Britton through my cousin! She was so sweet and charming  (not to mention talented) and her jewels were AMAZING! Everyone was was “oohing and ahhing” at her workmanship.

I stumbled across this amazing collection from The Barber’s Daughters called “The Book of Life“. You can purchase a “book cover” necklace and then purchase “pages” to go into it – ones that have meaning or significance.

I also loved these really cool t-shirts with unique to Toronto scenes on them from Tresnormale – based on Montreal. So very smart of them to appeal to the hearts of Torontonians at the show!

I couldn’t resist making a purchase for myself at Stick Man. All their jewellery is just so adorable!

I was also so drawn to the clothing at Nude Clothing. So much so that I went back to the booth several times “just to look” and ended up purchasing a skirt!

So there you have it…the booths that were stand outs for me this year! I WISH I had the time to profile everyone there – you really need to check out the show next time (Spring!) as there is always a new discovery to be made.

Ashley and I will both share our One of a Kind Show purchases in future posts. In the meantime, please share with me your OOAKS experience and your favourite booths in the comments!
