Aflame Creations, the handmade designs of jeweller Megan Archer, can be found on the weekends at the Seaport. Her pendants and earrings are made of enameled copper, with different-coloured glass powders applied to the copper and then fused in a kiln at 1500 Celsius. She will do custom work by request, and this is just the beginning of her efforts: check back soon for rings and brooches. “My work has a sort of antique, organic feel—lots of trees, leaves, birds, feathers, some ocean-y/nautical stuff, as well as a yoga-themed collection,” she explains. All pieces are between $25-$35. For more info, check aflamecreations.ca or aflamecreations.etsy.com.
