Vendor Profile - Skrap





skräp: a Swedish word for junk. 

Hoarding vintage/antique items has been a hobby of mine for years. I decided to turn it into a business opportunity in 2013. Hence skräp was conceived as a pop-up shop offering vintage and retro household items and accessories. Recently I added to the collection some handmade stationery items that are inspired by vintage floral prints as I'm a sucker for color and pattern. I recycle paper from half-used notebooks and notepads and remnants from other paper projects. 

You can find skräp at the 33rd Street Market, on Facebook  or email


Vendor Profile - ReMade Goods





ReMadeGoods are crafted from 100% upcycled material. Scraps such as old mop heads, used sweaters, cotton from vitamin bottles, plastic and paper packaging as well as other found odds and ends are assembled into fiber wall art. Many of the current goods are made from waste collected from the 2015 Saskatchewan Jazz Festival, construction sites and recycle bins throughout the city. These ReMadeGoods are a playful nod to 1970s wall art and make macrame modern by encouraging us to examine our relationship with waste.

You can find ReMade Goods on Instagram @remadegoods, online or email .

Vendor Profile - Remade Groovy by Britt





My name is Britt Agrey and I hand-make funky and unique clothing and accessories out of recycled fabrics and notions. I have been creating things out of fibre for the majority of my life and five years ago I started Remade Groovy by Britt as an outlet to sell what I make.Remade Groovy by Britt's main goals are to make everything from recycled materials so each piece has a low impact and to make each piece completely unique and feel great to wear. This can sometimes be a challenge but that is what keeps me going- continually having an artistic challenge to overcome!
