Unfortunately, the Menagerie Oddities Market in Ferndale has been canceled due to due to unforseen and unfortunate circumstances, so there will not be an event. However, we are still making the trip up there to visit our family. Let us know if there is something you were planning to stock up on, and we can arrange a meet-up at our hotel in Eureka.

While we have had so much fun thrifting and antiquing for vintage glassware to give them each a new purpose, we are trying to downsize our current collection by selling them. We're getting them squeaky clean and labeled so we can sell them at Metaphysical Market in the SF Bay Area Vintage Witch Market in Berkeley on October 18th.

We're hoping you can find a special piece that calls to you, whether it be your favorite color or one that reminds you of your grandmother. There are so many ways to re-purpose these vintage glassware pieces. How would you re-purpose some of the ones you see in the photos? Also, swipe to check out some of the candles we've made in the past. 💜

*We will also have some of our bath and body products available, but a very limited supply. We'll post separately about that when the time comes.

Go to the Whimsy Market's bio for your free tickets to their Vintage Witch Market in Berkeley on Sunday, October 18th.

The husband and I always make a point to shop local handmade, even while traveling. We picked up a few woven pandanus bags while in Savai'i over the summer. These are modern Samoan purses woven with pandanus leaves and finished with a decorative Polynesian siapo-style fabric panel cut from lavalavas (aka pareau or sarong). I had such a hard time picking just one out for myself, so I purchased 6. Perhaps you will have an easier time picking one out for yourself than I did.

We had fun making these tiki candles. With scents of passionfruit pineapple, coco butter, and coconut, they are sure to trigger some blissful nostalgia of a time you visited paradise.

How cute are these mini tiki soaps?? We found these ice cube molds during our travels in the South Pacific over the summer and figured they would be perfect for the Menagerie's GothTiki market. Of course, the pink one has to be plumeria. Come smell the rest at our next market. We'll also have some handcarved coconut shell soap dishes we found in Samoa.
