I Heart Indie Fashion

So, Last night was the I Heart Indie Fashion at the Origin Design Lab in Old Town Eureka. It was such a great time! It is nice to get out of the studio and socialize with other makers and buyers. The Origin Design Lab is is an open studio and supply center for artists, designers and makers. They have classes, workshops and trunk shows. In the front is a lovely shop filled with fabulous wears from local designers and supplies for various projects. Origin Design Lab founders Andrea Baker and Jodi Lee created the design lab to promote and cultivate a local community of motivated and adept makers. There is such a feeling of support in Origin. They know it is hard to have a successful business as a maker and they are there to offer support and advice. They are also serious about selling local handmade quality products.
At the end of the night we all sat down and shared stories, advice and questions while sorting buttons! It sounds a little strange, but it was so much fun!
