Planted Knot ( )
Célia Hayet
Célia started macrame when she was pregnant with her second child 2 years ago. She fell in love with the simplicity of this art and the fact that that with only a few knots there are infinite possibilities to create. She also likes being able to use varied colours and textures for her beautiful creations. Going on a hunt for driftwood is one of her favourite activities to do with her family which gets incorporated into her pieces. She uses nature as a great source of inspiration.

Célia is working towards a website for next year but also plans to keep planted knot as simple as possible to continue freely with her creations.

Hey there! We have been so focused on the launch of Localicity that we haven’t done any formal introductions yet!
Here it is! So happy to be apart of our community of entrepreneurs, makers + designers!

Jess + Britt are a team of female entrepeneurs and the founders of Localicity, a curated online marketplace for Canadian designed and made products. The website features numerous locally made items + services, with a commitment to creating a community of like-minded creative folk.

Meet Jess (pictured right)
Jess is one badass entrepreneur. With her experience with working as a mechanical engineer, she is well versed in detail oriented design, that focuses on functionality. Her passion for style + eye for elegance, has led her into many e-commerce based ventures, one including Ecomadix; a sustainable yoga clothing company giving back to the earth one garment at a time. As a huge lover of travelling + being in nature, she believes in creating businesses with a positive impact for our future. Localicity fits into this vision of making the world a better place, by keeping our money in the local economy it benefits other makers + designers to inspire more creativity. Everyone who knows her would describe her as someone who is constantly living life to the fullest. With a vivacious laugh + a down for anything attitude, she reminds you to not take life so seriously + to always make the most of what you’ve got.

Meet Britt (pictured left)
Britt is a Mama, entrepreneur + lover of leaving it better than you found it. Her first love of learning the impact of circularity started with her work with seniors in her community. Nostalgia of the quality of how things used to be made. The idea of bringing new life to things otherwise forgotten inspired many of her ventures, including the creation of Two Arrows Vintage. With her experience in fashion styling, branding, + social media content creation she started working in e-commerce + developed a local directory. This directory synchronistically led her to meet Jess to join their diverse skill sets to create what is now Localicity. Britt loves people + has spent her life lifting the spirits of those around her.

No 6 Coffee

Boutique Coffee Roaster

Intentional in all senses of the word.
Taking a moment to delve into the intricacies of each coffee.
Slowing down to enjoy each other’s company and interact face to face.
Coffee that’s curated from independant coffee importers that source from small farms. Where they pay above and beyond fair trade minimums.
A tasting bar that allows you to engage your senses in the tasting of each brew and help you discover your own personal flavour preferences.
The place where you feel at home, your neighbour matters and supporting each other is at the heart of the business.
Practices that show commitment to the details in all aspects of the process.

I am beyond excited to say that my favourite coffee company is joining us on Localicity. Living in the Kootenays, I have learned a sense of community that isn’t offered everywhere. The importance of caring where things come from and where they go. An intentional way of living, that benefits all. I feel extremely blessed that this is the norm, where we come from and love when I see this example emulated by local businesses.

Hey guys! We are looking for Kootenay designers and makers to join us on Localicity. We have made joining insanely easy and will bring you sales to your store. No more platforms to manage. No invoices to make. Advertising is built in so no need to navigate complicated campaigns that just end up costing you more $ than they are worth. Sound too good to be true? It’s not. We are makers ourselves and saw a void in the marketplace so sought out technology to change this. Stoked to help Kootenay makers turn their side hustle into their main gig! Drop us a line for more info!
