Announcing: Vagabond Indie Craft Fair

Yup, you heard us– we’re hosting another amazing Vagabond Indie Craft Fair this holiday season! Saturday & Sunday, Dec. 8th & 9th to be exact. And as usual, our local handcrafted gift fair is being co-hosted by the fantastic SF Etsy Team!

We will show off the works of over 2 dozen talented local artists & craftspeople over the weekend, and the event will also boast a free crafting table, a bake sale to raise funds for the SF Etsy Team (an incredible resource for local indie craftspeople), a bar stocked with steaming beverages (mulled wine & spiked cider, anyone?), and more. So hurry up and mark your calendars! 12-6:30 both days.

Follow us on Facebook to get updates about who’s nifty crafties you’ll see at the event, and start your holiday gift planning early!

If you’re interested in applying to be a vendor, the application period is now through October 20th. Apply here!

We’re expanding our hours!

We know how much of a bummer it is when you have a craving for a new terrarium or a fun new pair of earrings, and you come out to Urban Bazaar on a Monday and we’re… closed. No fun! So guess what?

We’re now open on mondays!

Yep, that’s right. Urban Bazaar is open 7 days a week. Come by on a Monday to be greeted by our friendly employee Breanne!

Our new store hours:

Mon 12-7, Tues-Sat 11-7, & Sun 11-5:30

Urban Bazaar on TV!

I honestly don’t know why we’ve never posted this video before… Check out our terrariums, featured on ABC7! Yeah, it was for Mother’s Day, but terrariums are good year-round. I swear.

(Our portion of the segment is about 3 minutes in- but if you watch the entire video you’ll also see Tina Produce tea towels featured, which we also carry at Urban Bazaar!)

Displacement, Recycled

We are really looking forward to this beautiful upcoming event! Displacement, Recycled is a 40 minute dance performance that begins at the top of every hour from 11am-3pm in the gorgeous backyard of Urban Bazaar. By watching the piece in repetition with varied lighting angles and energy, you’ll experience a reflective recycling of sorrow, pity, anger, reconciliation, and love.

Support the project on Kickstarter here.

Summer Sale: Buy Three Plants, Get One Free!

This week’s sale at Urban Bazaar is… buy three plants (succulents, air plants, or ferns) and get one free! This only applies to our plants in nursery pots- not our planted arrangements or terrariums. You can use this discount to create your very own arrangement, though! Come get creative! Now through August 12th.

Succulent Terrarium Workshops for August

Due to popular demand, we now have not one, but TWO Succulent Terrarium Workshops on the books for August!  Come learn how to make these:

 

The workshops are scheduled for Saturday August 11th and Sunday August 19th, both from 1-2:30pm.  Get your tickets fast before they sell out!!!

The Bazaar Fete July 14th!

Urban Bazaar will have a booth at the Bazaar Fete today in Berkeley!

From 11-4 in Civic Center Park, there will be dozens of local artisan vendors, and the event is conveniently located right by the Berkeley Farmer’s Market! So why not come out, get some local produce, and then support some local craftspeople? We will have succulent terrariums & arrangements, vintage license plate cuffs, Summer-y hair accessories, tea towels, and more!
