Stash & Treasure Recycler’s Market

Market of the Week - Stash and Treasure Recycler's Market

* How long has your market been running?
This is our first of possibly more!

* What made you decide to start the market?
A conversation with my daughter Justine about what was to become of my creative stash. A long term sewer, mixed media artist and collector, the time had come to move stuff on. My creative direction has changed. I suggested why not run a market? On November 13 2010 the idea was born.

* Type of products sold at your market?
This market is about de-cluttering excess creative materials. Pre-loved, new, handmade, found, inherited, collected, hoarded will be on sale.

All artists, sewers, mixed media and assemblage artists, collectors, photographers, painters, quilters, dyers, jewellers, wood turners, scrapbookers, journallers, bookmakers, knitters, sculptors, felters, screen printers, weavers, beaders, toy makers, bike repairers, doll makers, crocheters, mechanics, ceramicists … anyone with too much creative stuff, this is the market for you.

* Number of stalls at your markets?
Currently 36 vendors have booked a table, some have booked two. By this time next week we’re confident the number will be more. Vendor spaces are available.

* Locations and how often your markets run?
Stash & Treasure Recycler’s Market will be at Marrickville Town Hall, 303 Marrickville Road, Marrickville 2204 on Saturday January 14, from 9am – 2pm. We’ll decide the future of Stash & Treasure after we survive this one :~)

* Anything else you’d like to share about your market?
The response to the Stash & Treasure Recycler’s Market concept has been phenomenal. From people with stash and treasure like recycler’s, artists, sewers and artistic and craft people to people seeking to de-stash, the response has been overwhelming.

Jourmalists, radio announcers, advertising people, local businesses, community organisations plus online groups have congratulated us on this fabulous idea. We agree that a good idea has become a great idea!
