Our Story
Welcome to Remark & Rose! Our name was formed by combining my maiden name backwards and married name together. Joining together my roots of what I have learned on my family farm to what my husband has taught me when it comes to handling tools and finishing projects to perfection.
During Covid and spending a lot of time working from home and raising our kids, I learned how to manage time differently and listened to my mind and body that I needed a creative outlet. I started scrapbooking with my daughter during lockdown and working on our newly built home by adding character to our walls. When shopping for certain products like macrame wall hangings I had a hard time finding something unique and different. After doing some research I found a local Canadian supplier of macrame cord that is 100% natural cotton, and decided to make my own wall hangings. I purchased her book on creating different knots and watched a lot of youtube videos- starting a small hobby. After completing bigger projects, word of mouth spread and received feedback from family and friends to make this into a business. I was able to get products into local storefronts and attend markets.
​
After 1 year of making macrame, I felt limited to who I could service. I decided to invest in a laser machine and start working more with wood. My grandpa was a woodworker and I feel like it runs through my veins to create unique and meaningful gifts like he did. I have a unique style I have established with macrame incorporating weaving into the design, as it creates such a unique look. With expanding with laser technology, I have the ability to create beautiful pieces, whether its with wood, acrylic, paper, cardboard, leather, or metal.
​
When I use my laser, it does the cutting and engraving with its laser beam by burning the material. When I am creating detailed 3D pieces, once the material is cut (either by my laser or by hand on my scrollsaw) I shape and sand each piece by hand to give it a realistic look. I use high quality spray paint and tend to use various different shades of the color palette to also elevate the piece to try to create shadows and realism.

I am a huge advocate to inspire others to create something of your own. I host craft nights, whether its a girls night or Christmas Party, I teach a class and you create that piece with your own hands! I also rent out varies arches and decor. If you like to style photoshoots as a photographer, or have an event you can decorate and style the arches to your liking. I can also style and design if needed as well with any kind of rentals.
