Ohhhh Canada!!

I'm super excited to share this project that I worked on with HomeSense to celebrate Canada's 151st birthday!  We're feeling more patriotic than ever these days so what better way to show some homegrown love then to add some Canadiana themed products to your summer decor! I created 5 different watercolor illustrations based on iconic Canadian food (and drink) that were used on melamine plates and tea towel sets.
