It’s been a busy year of travel already, but May is here and we are back with a round-up of our local faves! Keep reading to find a time and event that works with your schedule to shop, hang and mingle. We have something for everyone this month - including our annual favorite Mother’s Day Markets AND some new additions!
One of my goals for this year is to pop-up in new neighborhoods ( and cities ) and fill my schedule with at least three events per month. I’ll be sharing our up-coming schedule on the first of each month ( but be sure to refer to our IRL events page for our full up-coming schedule. ) Want to host something together? Please email me to chat!
Saturday May 3rd from 12 - 5pm at the BBYC Taproom ( Yonder )
Ballard | 826 NW 49th St, Seattle, WA 98107
Come on down to Yonder Cider’s annual Spring Maker’s Market in Ballard!
May is my favorite month for pop-ups because I get to find you at TWO of my favorite places. The first is Yonder - a beautiful and welcoming tap room in Ballard. There is a huge outdoor space filled with picnic tables, fire pits, and more - plus they have a real authentic vintage photo-booth ( my fav! ) Come hang and meet this year’s round-up of local makers - and snag one of our Beanies ( we always sell out at the Yonder markets - come early ! )
The BBYC Taproom is open 12pm - 10pm. Cider & Beer available on-tap or to purchase in cans to-go. Food truck on site. Ample free street parking. Kids & Doggos are welcome!
Sunday May 4th from 10am - 2pm at Bake Shop
Lower Queen Anne | 221 1st Ave W #100, Seattle, WA 98119
This is our Annual Mother’s Day market + event! I have curated some of my FAVORITE small businesses for this event, and there is a lot to see and do.
Spend the morning with coffee and treats at my favorite cafe on Queen Anne. Shop vintage, ceramics, jewelry and skin care ( lots of great options for Mother’s Day Gifts, or a treat for yourself ) plus you can get a cute tattoo and have a hand-drawn portrait done of your pet ( or loved one ) all in the same day!
I have multiple tattoos by Kat - she has a gentle touch and a sweet soul. I recently discovery Cathy at an event earlier this year and had a portrait done of my kitty. I am truly obsessed.
Do not miss this event!
Bake Shop is open 8am - 4pm. Coffee, matcha, wine, N/A drinks and more available. Full lunch menu and pastries - as well as grab-and go bread or wine. Ample free street parking. Kids & Doggos are welcome! ( Doggos must be leashed outside the cafe, but are welcome in the Lobby for the pop-up )
Saturday May 17th from 11am - 3pm at Storied at Home
Upper Queen Anne | 2220 Queen Anne Ave N, Seattle, WA
There’s a cute new home decor shop on Upper Queen Anne next to the Queen Anne Dispatch, How to Cook a Wolf and across from Millie. We will be popping up on the front porch with vintage, small goods and more - alongside Phosphorus Botanical with fresh flowers.
Stay tuned for more vendors - and details on drinks + snacks!
Sunday May 18th from 3 - 6pm at Half Seas Wine + Bottle Shop
Ballard | 5413 6th Ave NW, Seattle, WA 98107
We’re back and hoping to make this a monthly thing with our favorite ( and dare we say cutest?? ) bottle shop in Seattle! I will have a fresh rack of spring vintage, cute reworked crop tops, socks, hair clips and more.
Come hang, sip on wine and lets chat about life, clothes and whatever else!
Halfseas is open on Sunday from 3 - 9pm. Wine by the glass, bottles to go, N/A options and light snacks are all available to purchase. Kids welcome - dogs must hang outside. Make a full day of it and explore the coffee shop next door for brunch ( Red Arrow open 7am - 2pm ) or dinner after at Brimmer and Heeltap ( open 4 - 9pm, Oyster & Wine HH served from 4-5pm. Dogs allowed at Red Arrow/Brimmer on the patio or garden. Reservations strongly recommended for dinner. )
