Pop! Fall Market

Full Photographic Album

Pop! Fall Market in Mullaney's car park.

Last Sunday I went down to Pleasant Ridge to experience the Pop! Fall Market held in the Mullaney's car park. It was a cosmopolitan affair with vendors of all sorts selling their wares.

Dandy Haberdashery

Arland of Dandy Haberdashery was the host having organized the event. Arland has the quaintest store, which is directly across the road from the car park. Arland has been at this location for the last two years. This store originally was the first police station in Pleasant Ridge in 1800. Since then it has been an a shoe, candy, ice-cream, shoe and finally a creative persons mecca. Arland saved this building from destruction and consequently carried on the theme of recycling and responsibility to our Earth. Arland has created a venue where local artisans can place their works of art. He also has vintage items, personalized jewelry and interior design services to name just some of the services he provides. There is always something new every month. Go down and visit him, you will be so happy you did. Location Facebook Instagram

Urbana Cafe

I found out about the market through Daniel Noguera of Urbana Cafe. I met Daniel a few years back when I visited Findlay Market. I had to go and visit his cute light blue Vespacar P501, and get one of Daniel's creations. Definitely one of the more compact coffee shops you will ever visit. He is available for occasions and can be seen at many markets around Cincinnati and further. He is in the process of creating a brick and mortar store and I look forward to when it opens. I spent some time today and discussed the coffee business and more specifically what goes into making great coffee, cappuccino and more.  What I came away with is that it is a precise art, and much like photography you can change variables and end up with the same masterpiece at the end. But like photography you need to know your equipment and practice constantly. One of my connections with Daniel is his love of dogs, which immediately makes him a friend of mine.

Finished product - delicious

Daniel creates my drink. 

You come away from meeting Daniel and the people that share his dream, is that they listen to people. He knows his regulars, but always goes out of his way to welcome newcomers to his stand. When you next need your caffeine kick go seek out Urbana Cafe. Facebook Instagram High Definition Photographs Album

Jerri with her photographs

I met up with another photographer Jerri Schultz who had some of her amazing art on show. She photographs one of my favorite themes, old buildings and structures. Jeri was originally from Upstate New York but calls Cincinnati home now. And you will never guess what, she too has a pup.

If you are looking to get clean, EB's Naturals Bath and Body was on show. Erica started researching this business in 2009 and opened it in 2012. She sells her products, which are all carefully researched and natural at the following stores.

Looking for sweaters that are artwork. Angela of Sweater Rescue had some of her work hanging for everyone to admire. Angela takes old sweaters and creates clothing which is not only ecologically sensible but are fashionable as well. Angela has mostly been displaying her clothing at shows for the last two years. Another animal lover, Angela donates 10% of all her sales to animal shelters. Facebook 

Bird houses like you have never seen before

David explaining what he plans to bring out in the future

Last but not least I visited Salvaged, that must have the ultimate in recycled bird houses. David Church a lifelong artist, creates these works of art from old thrown away wood and other objects no-longer having a home. David finds a lot of his "raw" materials using the Nextdoor app. I was blown away by the selection of just bird houses. He also had a lot other works of art, the mirrors being one you should "look" at. David 
started peddling his unique art about two years ago. He teaches technology during the year, and then sells his creations during the summer.
