We have you covered! Come to Night Market at Freight House Square !
As soon as I wrap up the holidays with my family I’m heading down to Night Market to meet yours!
Got some new goodies for you this weekend! New ornament designs to bring your decorating to the next level. First is the Diavolo Rosso a charming little sprite of an orb to join the others on your holiday tree. The Second is a fun little number inspired by the classic Crimson Ghost films but most notably known as the signature image of the punk band Misfits.
As always I will have a great selection of tumblers, vessels and Baby Head Cups.

The Glow in the Dark Night Market is a captivating and unique nighttime experience that transforms the traditional concept of a market. Illuminated by an array of vibrant neon and phosphorescent lights, this market comes alive after dark, creating a surreal and enchanting atmosphere.
Visitors can explore a diverse array of stalls featuring everything from glowing handmade crafts to luminescent clothing and accessories. As you wander through the market, you’ll be mesmerized by the surreal play of lights and colors, making it a truly one-of-a-kind shopping and social event that brings a touch of magic to the night.
Step back in time and groove to the electric beats of the ’90s at Neon Night, Seattle’s ultimate 90s dance party hosted by the city’s very own DJ Tone and DJ Buttnaked. This event is a nostalgic journey through the neon-lit era of scrunchies, boomboxes, and fluorescent fashion. With an infectious blend of hip-hop, R&B, and techno tracks, these talented DJs will transport you to the golden age of dance music, making it impossible not to move your feet on the neon-lit dance floor.
Punk Rock Flea Market is all ages at ALMA in Tacoma
Setting up this weekend for a two day party with some of my favorite punks! I’m bringing out the weird creepy wonderful and uncomfortable items for your enjoyment! A fresh run of Tacoma Tumblers featuring Skulls, Dice, Kitties, and a Bunny named Frank! Also just harvested an fresh run of Pumpkin Heads that are channeling this moody goth vibe. Perfect for the disgruntled teenager in you.
Punk Rock Fleamarket is Saturday and Sunday September 2nd and 3rd at ALMA in Tacoma. Saturday 11am-7pm and Sunday 11am-5pm all ages $1 entry.
Gearing up for this mayhem! Hundreds of vendors, tons of food! Music, games, shopping from local vendors! I will be there with my usual selection of oddities. Also I have a new drop of Baby Head Daisy yard art!
PUNK ROCK FLEA MARKET returns to the aromatic environs of Tacoma, at Alma Mater 1322 Fawcett Ave, with our special healing blend of bargains, beats and booze! Hundreds of vendors from across the region will sell their finest wares, DJ’s will fill the air with their sweet noise, we’ll have alcoholic drinks for the grownups, fattening treats for the kids, savory food for pretty much everyone and the kind of open and welcoming atmosphere that makes you wish we could scrap consumer society altogether and just start over!
The PRFM remains an ALL AGES event. Bring the kids, bring your parents, bring the whole damn crew. And we are PROUD to say that since 2006 it costs just ONE DOLLAR to take a deep dive into the bowels of punk rock ephemera while supporting local independent business.
As always, the PRFM supports our friends the Low Income Housing Institute, aka. LIHI, with a donation from our proceeds. LIHI is a non-profit organization that provides homes for homeless and low-income people all around the Puget Sound, and is currently leading the effort to build tiny self –contained houses for homeless people and families around our region. More info about them at www.lihi.org.

Also I am trying out some new colors to fill out the Baby Head spectrum. A Dark Green and a soothing Teal are being added to the line up. Be the first to snatch one up!
Along with the drink ware I have some ridiculously funny smiling Bunny Ornaments. a little late for Easter, but it’s never too early for a bunny?
