last saturday, my boyfriend took me to a new (to me) coffee shop in raleigh. i was shocked that i did not know this place existed because if there is a coffee shop within a 50 mile radius of me, i know about it. what's even more shocking is that my man doesn't even drink coffee. how does he, the non-coffee drinker, know about sola coffee cafe and me, the bordering on coffee addiction girl, not know about it? what parallel universe am i living in?
so glad we went-sola coffee is awesome. the decor is hip and eclectic and we happened to go on the one saturday of the month that they host a pop-up artist market. there were probably about 10-12 artists there selling their handmade goods.
it got me super charged up to create, and i think i am going to contact sola about participating. i talked to a few of the vendors, and one of the girls said it was her very first time selling her stuff! hearing stuff like that makes me feel proud of any artist who is trying something new with their art. i want to do like a synchronized jump high-five with them. i'm never sure how that will be received so i usually just tell them good luck.
who knows. maybe next time, i will be the girl telling a customer that it's my first time at the market. if they go for a high-five, i'm taking it.

DeleteThis place looks so rad! And it's so sweet that your boy took you there when he isn't even a coffee-drinker :) All the decor and handmade items look so cool!! I'm so excited that you are going to start creating and try selling your stuff there! You are so talented that I'm sure you'll have no trouble selling your stuff. Can't wait to see how it turns out :)
ReplyDeleteit is such a cool, creative space! you would love it. i just love the vibe and atmosphere of a good coffee shop, and i'm sure you know what i mean as an avid coffee drinker yourself. :-) i hope maybe i can get some info about joining in at their pop-up markets! i will definitely keep you guys in the loop. loved looking at your nashville pictures-looks like you got into some great coffee shops yourself!
