Let me introduce myself: I'm Janet Davis, an artist and entrepreneur living and working on the North side of Bonavista Bay, on the island of Newfoundland in Eastern Canada. There are many challenges to running a business here in a small rural community, and there are many wonderful benefits too. This blog is where I share some of those challenges and triumphs, and share what it's like to live in this part of the world.
Thank Goddess it’s Friday! Or whatever you’d like to call it.
Remember that little sales table I introduced a few days ago? I’ll show pictures of what’s on that table here every Friday until I’ve sold off everything that I need to remove from my inventory lists.
So here we go:
Foggy Island Candles: a gorgeous product with scents to trigger great Newfoundland memories. The Stormy Nights candle is my favorite right now, and I have one burning while I’m at work quite often- smells like the cookstove, matches, and bread in nan’s kitchen.

I love these little felted art pieces. Just pop them in a frame and enjoy the natural fibre beauty of a wonderful designer craftsperson, Catherine McCausland.

I'd love for you to help spread the word about what's happening at Norton's Cove:
I am an artist and entrepreneur from a little town on the northeastern coast of Newfoundland, Canada.
I am proud of my heritage of hardworking people and I believe that we deserve good food, music, and art. I love to show off my beautiful and sophisticated little part of the island of Newfoundland.
