next big thing

Check out Fred Flare's Next Big Thing, another opportunity for Toronto makers to bust on to the international craft/design stage. Applicants are invited to enter their creations for possible sale on the Fred Flare website, and favourite products are featured in an exclusive online boutique that also features bios (see last year's here). For those not already in the know, Fred Flare is a NYC based online boutique that carries accessories, clothing, homewear, and kitchy ephemera galore. It is very popular among DIY-junkies and hipsters at large. So if selected as one of the Next Big Things that would mean some pretty incredible exposure.

Go here for all the info you need. Deadline is March 31st so act fast!

Thanks to indiecraft foremother Karissa Cove for this tip.
