Silent Auction forms are around the corner from the cash, near the bags.  Can’t find them?  Don’t be shy to ask our staffers for help.  They will be more than happy to show you (and to chat about the lovely ornaments).

Our first ornament profile is: Tiger-Get-By.  You may recognize the name from the amazing earrings, cowls, and brooches that you’ve seen at the store.  Jennifer crafted a stunning set of three origami stars made from striking black, gold, red and green paper.  She joined the three stars and added a jeweled tail (think: like a kite’s tail).  This eye-catching ornament will spruce up any household in need of festive decoration.

Tiger-Get-By Origami Stars Ornament

Come and see the Tiger-Get-By Origami Stars live and in person at the store…and don’t forget to bid!  All proceeds raised during the Silent Auction will be donated to the Dalhousie Parents’ Daycare.

Keep on checking our blog for more ornament profiles!

Preschooler Ornaments!

Now that our Hallowe’en costumes are packed away, visions of good deeds and unique Christmas ornaments are dancing through our heads.

We’re excited to announce our first-ever silent auction with proceeds going to support the Dalhousie Parents’ Daycare in central Ottawa.

Our fabulous designers, local artists, and Workshop staff are generously donating handmade, one-of-a-kind ornaments to the cause and for that, we are so grateful. A warm Workshop thank-you goes out to:

Adding to our stash of gorgeous ornaments is our crew of designers-to-be. Yes, the little ones from the Dalhousie Parents’ Daycare made ornaments too and we just can’t get over how cute they are!

Toddler Ornaments!

Next week, we will be hanging the ornaments in the shop window so you can check out the amazing creations for yourself. The silent auction will go throughout November and will end a couple of weeks before Christmas so successful bidders can trim their trees in time for St. Nick’s arrival.

As a special treat for our blog readers, we’ll post photos of the ornaments online so you can check them out before you come down to bid on your favourites!

Ps: While visiting Workshop for your holiday shopping, check out the cookbooks that the Dalhousie Parents’ Daycare put together…they’re a steal at $5 and they’re available at the cash.
