The 6 shops
The Handmade Showroom
Independent gift shop at Pacific Place (since 2015) of small-batch, artisan-made goods; about half its makers are from the Pacific Northwest. Bezel & Kiln jewelry is a store-in-store here.

Push/Pull
Ballard art store, gallery and class space (with store-made paints and inks) run 'by artists, for artists', selling zines, comics and artist merch.

Pipe and Row
Fremont women's boutique (since 2014) mixing local artists and international designers.
CITRINE design shop
Design shop in Issaquah's Gilman Village carrying designers and makers' brands.
SAM Shop (Seattle Art Museum)
