Say Hello to our next featured vendor!

Amber Zaraza is the designer of phea jean, a clothing and accessories company based in Philadelphia.
Each phea jean item is handmade by incorporating vintage fabrics and notions along with upcycled materials, all meticulously sewn and assembled to create one of a kind items. 
"I began sewing at the age of 12, when my grandmother (phea) would take me to the thrift store and I would pick up polyester pantsuits and turn them into purses. I never had actual yards of fabric, I would just see a print I liked and cut up whatever it was and sew it into something else, essentially upcycling. I did a lot of hand sewing in that time but was able to hone in on my machine skills in high school and eventually enrolled in college for fashion design.  It was during college that I started sewing handbags- first for myself, then friends, and soon strangers were noticing my handbags and asking where they could be purchased. This led me to start phea jean (named for my two grandmothers) in 2005. My love for vintage has never subsided and I hunt thrift stores, garage sales, and attics to find interesting fabrics and prints. What started as a custom handbag company, phea jean has now expanded to include many other accessories such as hats, wallets, scarves, hair accessories, and even clothing! "
phea jean will have a wide variety of accessories on hand along with winter capes and ponchos for women and children!

Our next vendor comes from Wayne PA, she has a wide variety of things on her shop and we are super excited to have her here at artmore this year!
"What's better than wearing a rhinestone brooch and having everyone give you compliments, or enjoying an adorable lady head vase on your bureau every day?  Give a party and set your table with a retro tablecloth and vintage salt & pepper shakers or antique cups and saucers!  These are some of the reasons I love to buy and sell vintage everything, especially jewelry.  It gives you something that has so much character and beauty, but is fun and different from the modern jewelry of today.  These are pieces of vintage history, from the designer to the materials.  I've branched out into other categories because there are so many fun and funky accessories and home decor items out there!  I try to offer something for everyone at a great prices.
I am also a painter and interior designer; my interior design firm is Segal & Wilmot Design Consultants.  You can see some of my designs at Houzz.com.  Please email me with any questions about my shop on Etsy or design services at csegal6@comcast.net.  Thanks and have fun shopping!"

The Artmore Gift Fair

81 days until the first Artmore Gift Fair! We are really excited to be hosting Artmore this year and we hope you all will get excited too.



So what is Artmore?! Artmore is a gift fair that is hosted around the holidays giving the community an opportunity to come and enjoy some shopping for their family and friends. 

Why Artmore?!  Artmore will be a collaboration of local crafters and vendors making handmade gifts and food. It is a great opportunity to earn money, network with other crafters in the area, and share your hard work with the community.

When and Where?! Artmore will be held on November 24th. The set up for crafters will be open at 8:30am to be completed by 10am. The set up for food/kitchen related items will open at 10am to be finished by 10:30.  Artmore will be located at 10 East Athens Avenue, Ardmore, PA, 19003

How Much?! The vendor fee is $25 which will be paid via Pay Pal or personal check. Payment will not be due until your acceptance at Artmore.  All money collected from the vendor fee will be donated to Indigenous Pitch.

Indigenous Pitch Dance Collective, Inc. is a collective of ethnically diverse Philadelphia- based dance companies whose goal is to create and perform works of artistic excellence that reflect and highlight the diversity of our city and its native, homegrown dance styles. We support emerging choreographers by providing rehearsal space, critical feedback and performance opportunities in which to explore and develop their artistic styles. Through the art of dance, visual and literary arts, music and theatre,  we assist, educate and nurture children affected by natural and/or socio-economic disasters. We fulfill this mission with performances, residencies and workshops throughout the United States and abroad.
