The fall wreath and terrarium workshops have proven to be crazy popular again this year.
Terrariums
The October terrarium workshop seemed to book up in days, and the November terrarium workshop is full. There are a few places open in the December 15th workshop, so please call or send an email if you are interested in signing up.
Wreaths
It is the same story with the wreath workshop. The Wreath workshop on Tuesday November 17th is full, so we have added second one on Thursday November 19th. Thursday's Wreath workshop is almost full as well, so if you are thinking of reserving a spot - please think fast.
Festive Madness
The 'pull-out-the-stops-do-whatever-you-want' workshop on Wednesday December 9 has only a few spots left. This is the workshop where you can decide whether you would like to try your hand at a wreath, a table centrepiece, a garland for mantle or table, or an 'indoor'seasonal urn.

Super crawl is here and James Street North has been a hive of activity for a week!
We have some beautiful french lavender, gorgeous jasmine plants bursting with new buds (and scenting up the shop nicely), a couple fridgees filled with fresh fall flowers and once again, i fiori will be selling roses in the shop and in front of the shop with all proceeds donated to the Good Shepherd Notre Dame House.
We will be open this weekend:

the july calendar starts to fill up...
Well, the month of June was a blur. Between 'nesting' in the new shop, and designing the flowers for some beautiful June weddings, all of a sudden... Boom. It is July.
The month of July brings some fantastic events to us in Hamilton... aside from the Pan-Am games...
Once again, i fiori will be selling passports to the garden tour, and this year the tour goes to Grimsby.
Passports are $20.
As always, all proceeds go to the Stephen Lewis Foundation.
You not only get to see some amazing private gardens, the Grimsby Museum, the Pump House and Peace Garden but you are able to visit the 'Painted Ladies' at Grimsby Beach - an entire neighbourhood of wonderful, whimsical homes and gardens.

July 2015 :: Art Crawl
Friday July 10
all day basically - 10:30pm
Feed your soul... by purchasing some sunflowers because nothing says 'summer' like sunflowers!
i fiori will be selling gorgeous sunflowers with all net proceeds going to Notre Dame House, a shelter for youth facing family violence, abuse and poverty. Part of the Good Shepherd group of services, the Notre Dame House is also our good neighbour.
Feed your tummy... the local bakery 'Made for you by Madeleine' will be in the shop with a selection of their fresh baked goods in case you need a snack or two.
Or just feed your curiosity and come see the 'new digs' at 140 James North... we are settling in nicely.
i fiori will be at the Village Station Bazaar on Sunday July 12th with a good selection of really fresh flowers, plants born and raised in Ontario greenhouses, and this month we will feature:
vintage pottery and vases for sale
There is always a good selection of artists, artisans and small businesses represented at the summer bazaars at Ferguson Station,
and we are proud to participate!

the geriatric moving crew
More peeks of last Saturday's activities.
I cannot thank the friends who helped me move enough. Affectionately dubbed 'the geriatric moving crew', this team of super humans ranged in age from 55 to 69 years old. Experience is everything - with countless moves and renovation projects in our back pockets, every task was checked off without a hitch.
We started at 9:30 and stopped when everything was more or less finished at 4:30, capping off the day with French 75s and a porchetta dinner in the new shop.
