ST. HELEN'S AVE. MERCANTILE: You can score steampunk goggles, tea, candy, art and crystals in less than 15 minutes.
ONE-STOP SHOPPING >>>
Antique Row? Theater District? Triangle District? The Weekly Volcano's not sure what to call the lower St. Helen's Avenue area anymore, other than the new hotspot for retail shopping. Feather & Oar, Urban Alchemy, Dwelling, Giraffe, and one month ago, the St. Helen's Ave. Mercantile have opened for business around the Tacoma Municipal Building.
Yesterday, the St. Helen's Ave. Mercantile celebrated its one-month anniversary with a grand opening party featuring sales, food, drinks and the band Half Step Behind.
St. Helen's Ave. Mercantile houses The OCD Candy Company, The Tea Works, The Blue Octopus and Wolf Bear Treasures - for a one-stop, eclectic shopping experience. The storefront, located at 753 St. Helens, is packed with goodies from the loose leaf tea and steampunk shop inside the front door, the art gallery and painting studio to the right, the candy store in the back right to the metaphysical and spiritual healing center in the back room. We drooled over the über-cool steampunk antiques and Kerry Cole's paintings in Fauvist color schemes. We grabbed up some chocolate covered peanuts and nostalgic candy sticks, and rubbed moon stones and stared deeply into crystals. You could gift your interesting friends to death.
ST. HELEN'S AVE. MERCANTILE, 11 A.M. TO 5 P.M. SUNDAY, NOON TO 6 P.M. WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY, 10 A.M. TO 6 P.M. FRIDAY AND SATURDAY, 753 ST. HELENS AVE., TACOMA, FACEBOOK
