 Do you have your holiday shopping completed?! If you are looking to add a TAB Collection™ piece to your wardrobe, please reach out or gently poke a loved one to subtly hint that you have a design style in mind for the holidays. Please keep in mind that I personally make each bag. This does take time and with only 38 days remaining until Christmas this gap is closing in quickly. Orders are taken on a first come first serve basis. I will do my very best to accommodate all inquiries, however I will kindly remind everyone that each bag is made with love, not manufactured and does take time. Please reach out by email or call, if you wish to visit with me for an in person visit to place your order or see what is available in stock and NEW. Over the next few weeks I will be popping up at various locations, perhaps this is an opportunity to view the bags in person, purchase or pick-up your order. Where to find me before the holidays ~ FIND TAB You can find me this weekend, along with a diverse mix of 40+ juried Craft Nova Scotia members at the Sunnyside Mall, Bedford, Nova Scotia for the Craft Nova Scotia ❄️ Winter Show. Find the perfect locally made holiday gift 🎁 for you, your family, or friends. ~ Tabitha XO  #TABITHACO #MindfullyMade #LeatherGoods

 Graphics credit: Skysail Brand Marketing & Design I have a little 'Throwback Story' to share! In August, 2021, I had the fortunate opportunity to have TABITHA + CO™ featured in Shoutout LA ~ Voyage LA Magazine. One of the reasons for agreeing to this featured opportunity was that this digital magazine highlights rising artists, creatives and many others that take a leap of faith in their abilities, step outside of their comfort zone and take a risk, while doing their best to make a difference for others. Shoutout LA's mission is to feature more about the extraordinary life stories of everyday humans, their journeys, struggles, values and sharing their background story with the hopes that these stories will resonate with the readers, in turn, building stronger communities of support and awareness to support local. Here is a glimpse of the interview: Mike Bhand: Hi Tabitha, what do you attribute your success to? Me: Success can be measured or viewed in many ways. For me personally, I would have to say that my success is that I believed in my own capabilities. I took a risk to follow my passion of design and started my company, TABITHA + CO™. This journey has certainly been faced with many challenges and lots of learning along the way. Each experience, good and bad throughout my life, was preparing me for where I am now, all of which I am grateful for.... Mike Bhand: Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to? Me: Are you ready to go on a holiday?! Close your eyes and imagine this!........... To read the full story link HERE ~ https://shoutoutla.com/meet-tabitha-co-she-her-founder-owner/ I hope that this little interview touches you in some way and who knows....Perhaps your next travel adventure will bring you to Nova Scotia, Canada. ~ Tabitha XO Special mention: Duane Jones, Art Pays Me Meg Craig, Skysail Brand Marketing & Design Valérie Leduc Photography Karla MacFarlane, MLA Pictou West Author Sarah Butland, Maritime EDIT Magazine  #TABITHACO #MindfullyMade #PremiumLeatherGoods

#LunenburgNS #CraftNS #PopUpShow #MadeInNovaScotia  Graphic credit: Fabrique 1840 Have you heard of Fabrique 1840? Fabrique 1840 was inspired by the Canadian Crafts Federation, a more than 100 year old national network that showcases pieces from the east coast to west and north to south, exploring Canada's creative wealth through the work of 70 professional craftspeople, including TABITHA + CO™. You will find unique jewellery, decorative accessories, and utilitarian objects that have been meticulously handcrafted by creators from across Canada that will enrich your everyday life with art and authenticity. Raw materials, like leather are transformed into durable, one-of-a-kind items that tell a story - the story of modern material culture. “We are delighted that this partnership is bringing the best of all participants together: professional artists, community engagement, an excellent market, and most of all - incredible work from craft artists across the country. Craft speaks for itself, but the story it tells is broad and meaningful. Buying craft is about more than a purchase - it becomes part of your personal collection, your personal story. Connecting with craft makes a difference, and the CCF is here to help connect people to that purpose.” ~ Maegen Black, Director, Canadian Crafts Federation. The Fabrique 1840 is presented by the National Bank of Canada in collaboration with the Canadian Crafts Federation, together providing valuable support that helps local businesses grow and, in turn, enrich our communities and our art, creating a strong network of mutual promotion and recognition. Fabrique 1840 Virtual Market is open until October 31st at simons.ca Enjoy exploring the creative work that these talented craftspeople have to offer!

 Graphics credits: Skysail Brand Marketing & Design Fashion Revolution Week is happening April 19th ~ 25th, 2021. “Fashion Revolution Week is the time when we come together as a global community to create a better fashion industry. It centres around the anniversary of the Rana Plaza factory collapse, which killed 1,138 people and injured many more on April 24th, 2013. This year as we all mark 8 years since the tragedy, Fashion Revolution Week will focus on the interconnectedness of human rights and the rights of nature. The campaign will amplify unheard voices across the fashion supply chain and harness the creativity of our community to explore innovation and interconnected solutions.  Artist credit: Meg Gonzalez ~ Human Rights & The Rights of Nature Human rights and the rights of nature are interconnected and interdependent; we are part of the wider living world and our right to a healthy environment depends on the health of our planet.” ~ Fashion Revolution Consider asking these questions the next time a purchase is made: 1. Who made your clothes? 2. What's in your clothes? 3. Who made your fabric 4. Who made your shoes? 5. Who made your hat? 6. Who made your jewelry? 7. Who made your bag? A ~ TABITHA + CO™ made your bag! Let us all continue to work together mindfully to ensure that human rights and the rights of nature are at the forefront of decision making and being addressed on a collective scale. Together we can make a difference for the people and our planet. Happy Earth Day! ~ Tabitha XO  Photo credits: Valérie Leduc Photography #TABITHACO #MindfullyMade #LeatherGoods #IMadeYourBag #FashionRevolution #ForPeopleForPlanet #HashtagRevolt |
