The 4th Annual Unique LA Spring Show was a wonderful, stylish, community loving, joy filled one. Located in the bustling downtown LA Fashion District and held during Mothers Day Weekend, the show was full of favorite independent designers and lots of new talent, crowds who loved buying local and their moms. It was high energy, design driven, and awesomeness.
Our row before the doors opened. We shared the row with awesome foods (Cool Haus, I Heart Pies, Z confections), awesome jewelry (fruition), and Caine's Arcade!
It was a very busy weekend, I spent a lot of Saturday making custom pieces and assembling more inventory for styles that were crowd favorites. But a lot of Sunday was spent shopping! I am so glad to have discovered many new to Unique brands, met the awesome people behind the brands, and picked up awesome things.
The Birds and the Beasts. I need their "We Did it All for the Glory of Love" poster.
Genuine HAHA! So many cute illustrated cards and such a friendly owner!
The NinjaBot! They're so awesome and were so happy to be part of Unique! I really liked their colorful prints and positive attitude.
Caposhi Jewelry! I was quite impressed by their set up and collection. Especially liked their Morse Code necklaces that utilized Czech glass and coral beads.
Miguez had one of my favorite table set ups. Designed so perfectly, it was like I was in her own little pop up shop.
LOK'D always rocks. I heart their re-purposing of Lego pieces into stylish accessories.
LOVE NAIL TREE always brings it.
Amanda of KYYOTE is an artist. I was so happy to finally meet her (we'd been twitter friends for a while) and pick up a custom bracelet. She's so sweet and her table was styled so perfectly that I thought I was looking at art and not jewelry.
Here are the pieces I purchased from the weekend:
Scout Books - trio of journals
Help Ink - greeting cards (profits of each purchase support charitable efforts around the world)
Iron Curtain Letterpress - awesome card
Oh, hello friend - packaging pieces
Theo Chocolate - milk chocolate chai!
Genuine HAHA - LA/SF card
Favor Jewelry - drop shaped gold fill ring
Fruition Jewelry - textured gold fill ring
KYYOTE - purple and yellow minimalist bracelet
And now, my table:
I found an awesome yellow/citron tablecloth at Anthropologie and knew it had to be my focus element. Every component was built around it. There were clean white blocks, yellow hearts, paper flowers, and purple canvases. We created a yellow, white, and purple lantern backdrop and hung my new wood sign. I like the look, it's very Spring! It will transition nicely to summer :)
My new business cards mixed in with old ones and Moo stickers. I'm excited to post about my new business cards this later week :)
Gemstone Statement necklaces.
Lovely Charms.
Rings and rings and rings!
A close up of my wall. I heart these colors.
It is always an honor to be part of this awesome Made In America independent design show. Thank you Unique!!

Glad you had a great show! Looks like such a fun time and you can see that it had a great energy.
Oh and I just have to tell you that I am still dying over the pieces. I wear them constantly! xoxo
