Long Lake Studio
Long Lake Studio specializes in jewelry making and upcycled designs. This self-taught artisan works out of her home in Ladysmith and all the upcycled jewelry is created with an eye to reusing, recycling and renewing vintage broken china. You’ll find a variety of pieces—some with a romantic flair, some new-age and edgy and some with a steampunk vibe. Find this work online or in markets in the central island.

These Victoria woodworkers love to upcycle pallets and cedar into useful repurposed projects, household needs and décor. Endeavouring to keep pallets out of landfills, they ensure that in addition to the repurposed projects, all nails from pallets are donated to the Habitat for Humanity recycling bin, the sawdust is utilized in gardens and end cuts are used to heat homes.
