Vendor Profile: Una
Una
Shop description: As with most creative endeavors, Una began as a brainchild. When the line eventually launched at the end of 2007, the idea was to stitch not-basic pieces in organic cotton or reclaimed fabric and then trim it with vintage buttons, lace, or a simple screen print. The other objective was to focus on small-scale, local production. For the most part, it's me. One girl. When I chose the name, Una, I selected it because in Spanish it is simply the female form of "one". But in Latin it also means "in one together". A much more powerful notion and not as lonely as I originally thought it might be. By producing and selling my pieces locally, I have had the opportunity to connect with the community on a more intimate level, meeting a lot of inspiring people along the way.
(It is after all, about the journey.)

Rags + Bones
Shop description: I have a passion for crafting, a love of rummaging and a need to keep myself busy. My materials are primarily reclaimed, recycled, left over or otherwise unwanted. When I go out looking for materials, I always have certain things I look for but the real fun is stumbling upon something really great or unusual to work with. I never toss anything out without first thinking of the craft potential. I hope to inspire others to do the same.
Vendor Profile: Power and Light Press
Power and Light Press
Shop description: Power and Light Press is born from a love of paper, type, and history, and inspired by overheard conversations, whiskey, the color brown, the Wild West, dogs, the wind, vintage office supplies, tiny things of all kinds, and beards, among other things.
We are a letterpress printing and design studio specializing in music packaging, posters, invitations, stationery, business cards, small handmade books, calendars, and other printed ephemera.
I try to work with scrap materials and paper as much as possible, and when larger paper is called for, I stick with recycled stock. As a maker of stuff, it is important to me to be aware of my own footprint and to tread as lightly as possible.
