Handmade Community

Many of our sellers are on etsy and other online sources of  crafted goods.  As a matter of fact, we are that concept in a brick and mortar store.  Our local makers are top notch, world class and amazing. Shopping in the East Village makes sense...we bring the best to you.  See it, try it, buy it with no shipping or delay.

Come see what Iowa is made of  and invest in your home town creatives - it does a world of good!

Decadence - where leather and scrap meet their destiny 

Antler & Chain - Nuggets of Glory

A friend sporting A & C at their 80/35 booth last Summer

 Antler & Chain is an indie jewelry line affiliated with Band of Gypsies, a handmade collective in Northeast Iowa. You may have shopped their booth at 80/35 and other pop-up crafty events.  Recently A & C set up at Hops & Crafts at the Confluence Brewing Co. along with Vitae's Decadence, Midcoast Design and other Midwest makers.

We had a chance to meet Olivia of Antler & Chain when she was last in town & had the opportunity to get some great stuff for the shop! 

The artist brings together natural elements in gorgeous hue and texture combinations.  You'll find dyed and expertly cut leather and Gold plated findings supporting gorgeous chunks of Amethyst and Quartz, along with  simple and at times deftly complex chain arrangement.  No doubt there's some antler and lace in there too -  that works.

 Come have a look at the great selection we've got for you. It's handmade Iowa goodness, and we're all about it. 

One of our makers, Andrew kingsbury of Decadence was recently invited to demonstrate his crafting technique on CW network's popular morning show Great Day.
 Upon viewing you might feel as I do that although he makes it look easy, it takes some strength, some sturdy tools and the know how to really pull it off.
 Decadence cuffs have a rugged experienced feel about them - as they should, being re cycled from belts and aged hardware.  Many pieces are for men or women, but even the delicate earrings and necklaces in this line convey a strength of (re) purpose and character we know you'll like.
  Find his stuff at Vitae, Market Day and at his Etsy shop DecadenceStyle and follow this link to see Andrew on TV:)

You look AdorNable!

We. Are. Over it.

Put that hat and scarf away, get that layered haircut and adorn yourself without snagging on your woolies. Oh children of the Sun, it's time for freckles and speckles.  If we get cold, lets make an old-coat bonfire.    It. Is. time to shine. 

pssst!  Pink Revolver IS the Artsy Lady;)

The Decadence and Luxe Debris lines are elementally grounded yet full of free spirited style.
