We are still working hard to make the store look nice and for the safety of our little team we have decided to remain closed at this time. Thank you everyone for their patience and we look forward to seeing you all soon. Stay safe!
Christkindl Market - Thank you for Joining Us!
Every Christmas, since medieval times, towns and cities across Germany come alive with the sights, sounds and smells of Christmas. Kitchener City Hall is home to Canada's original Christkindl Market - since 1997. We have once again been awarded "Top 100 Festivals & Events in Ontario." This year you'll notice more decorated outdoor huts and eating stands along King Street where you can enjoy Gluhwein, sweet and savoury foods to eat now, take home or wrap up for gift giving.
Elora is an artists' haven - The Star
Elora has a full menu of arts events, like the early autumn Studio Tour of Elora and Fergus, where artists open their doors, or the Elora Sculpture Project, a competition and sale that fills the streets and parks of Elora and Fergus with artwork from May to October.
Our Work
Whatever your space, we are able to craft windows for it. Generally, we’re commissioned windows to provide privacy, or remembrance and develop panels and medallions to accent living spaces. We hand-craft traditional, neo-traditional and contemporary windows right here in our studio.

What makes handcrafted so special?
With handcrafted items, more emphasis is placed on individually manufacturing products. Here creativity knows no bounds and because handcrafted is not designed for mass market, it is made for those who appreciate it.
