Anti-Brides, get your Indie on. SF-Indie Mart, that is. My compatriot and fab jewelry gal pal, Sheryl Gould of Rockcandydesign.com (who blinged-out our runway models in rocker Anti-Bride style at the Operation Aisle Style W-SF) is back again with her creations at this one of a kind event. Fabulously talented artisans from all over our fair, fog-bound city will bring their wares to delight and dazzle you. Beers, baubles, and bands, what more provocation do you need. Ask the cute Mish boy with the hair falling over one eye which necklace you should buy – and you could be well on your way to a galloping romance. Hit it!
The Indie Mart is hitting the street again Sunday July 18th, from 12-6pm. We got over 90 vendors bringing you the best makers, designers, vintage, handmade unique goodies, art, baked treats and much more. Tons of interactive vendors offering customization or showing you how it’s made. About a third of our vendors are new, keeping to our promise of new vendors from all over Cali & SF.
We also have more DIY! Thanks to all of you who loved up on our woodland creature terrariums. This Indie Mart you can make your own terrarium, make pie in a jar to take home & bake OR you can sew up & create your own Sock Monster with help from WorkshopSF. We also got Broke Ass Crafts with Broke Ass Stuart with all kinds of fun dirt cheap crafts to make. We’re also welcoming Forage SF who host the underground farmers market, who are bringing a few rad vendors with them. San Franpsycho live printing out their badass milktruck. Besides our usual standby’s on stiff drinks, cheap beers & fresh BBQ food from thee Parkside… We got a life size terrarium where you can hang out, drink some beers & kick it with the gnomes, deer and relax. PBR’s forest right next to it, where you can hang out and get some sweet PBR giveaways..did someone say a tallboy sleeping bag?! Puppies & kittens for adoption from WonderDog.
