crafted & emilie
by two after twenty
Em visited Toronto a few days ago, and I was lucky enough to catch up with her over coffee (some of you may recognize her as this Emilie). We visited Crafted by Te Aro on Ossington, and we both tried not too hard to disrupt the place with our cameras! Crafted is laden with really charming decor and has large, amazing windows (good for photo-taking light!). The cherry on top: we got the chance to hang with Em’s good pal Brett (photo below), a Crafted celebrity and a true artist at what he does. Em ordered a soy cappuccino, and I had the tea latte (unique and soothing).
Off topic, my macbook almost broke down processing all these photos … blerg. I also tried something a little different this time with the title diptych. That’s my handwriting up there! I may or may not continue with this style, but I did learn that it’s challenging to separate your brain from seeing your handwriting as “your handwriting” and to treat it solely as a design element.
Oh, and happy early birthday to Senaa, one of my very favourite pals!
Crafted by Te Aro - 135 Ossington Ave
nice photo’s!
Thanks! :)
I *love* the mood and feeling these evoke. You had me from the very first image. Makes me want some coffee and something warm to hold between my hands and a good friend to share it with.
Thank you so much! :)
Love Te Aro! Crafted is 5 mins from where I work. If you haven’t already tried it, their guatamala roast is divine….especially as a pour over….
I’ll be sure to try that next time! Thanks!
I so look forward to your series on these…Another lovely location =)
It’s always fun to have someone along with their camera too…
Thanks Tru! You’re so right, it’s so nice to have a camera pal around!
Beautiful images. I too love the mood in this post. Your writing is really cool – I like what you are going with that on the first image :)
Aw, thanks Karleen!
looks like my kinda place. :)
:) it is super cute!
I have always admired your handwriting… and now I am in love with all of your photos!
Ahaha thanks Cheryl!
