Monsters




The Artists top to bottom are Thea (teacher's example) Timothy, Thomas, Addie and Nadine.

These little monsters were created by the 3-5 year old Clanmore class! They were first created with crumpled recycled paper and then covered in plaster strips. These were then painted and decorated with eyes, hair and jewels.

Original Artwork

This piece was done by Yunji Seo an artist from Oakville! We are hoping to have more one of a kind art work in the store for your viewing pleasure and if you are interested in purchasing or having a piece commissioned. Stay tuned for more!!

BlaBla has arrived!


Check out blabla! These small to mid sized dolls and backpacks are our newest arrivals at Lollipop! All of these dolls are fair trade made by Peruvian artists and designed by Florence Wetterwald. Incredibly soft and huggable with quirky details that truly make them a treasure for any child or child at heart!

5-7 Fine Arts





The Artists from top to bottom are, Meghan, Nakita and Rocco.

Last Wednesday our fine art class completed their Dioramas; these three dimensional art works are inspired by Emily Carr's landscapes. The students explored basic perspective by using foreground, middle ground and background to create an environment. They also learned about the colour wheel and how to mix the colours they want on their own!

Next Week we will be beginning our Donatello inspired 'Character Sculpture' in clay.

New Location

Lollipop's NEW location is at 126 Trafalgar Road on the lower level. This move reflects a change in focus from children's based retail to a more functional studio with a smaller retail boutique. Our retail boutique features unique & creative products for the young and young at heart.


Our new location also features a Garden where both our JR. and SR. Garden Clubs will take place. Hidden from the street level, yet full of light and flowers this is a most welcome addition to our studio and retail space.
