Photo's from our new semi-permanent shop at SO:ME Space at the South Melbourne Markets
All photo's by Marsha Golemac
So here are our professional photo's of our SUPERCOOL new shop at SO:ME Space. We're pretty excited to share it all with you. Make sure you pop down on the market days (wed, fri, sat & sun) to say hi and check it out. We'll be here for 6 months this time! Thanks needs to go to some people who helped make it all happen in no particular order.
1. The team behind SO:ME Space & the South Melbourne Markets (Belinda, Claude, Sinclair & Ceyda)
2. Our awesome and super quick builders - Twelve Nails
3. Our designers from Studio Alto for the awesome manifesto (it takes up a whole wall like a wallpaper describing who we are, what we do and what we are about) alongside our great logo, postcards and overall brand identity.
4. All the talented, creative designers & brands whose product we stock - your fresh designs make us look SuperCool!
5. Our new van Paco - you've really worked hard driving around collecting stock, holding our display furniture and we've loved riding in you!
6. Adolfo (Noonie's papi) - Muchos Gracias for your great painting skills with our Spinning Wheel
7. Clarita (Noonie's mami) - Muchos Gracias for providing us with yummy healthy home cooking whilst we worked 13 hour days to get this ready
8. Adrian (Kate's dad) - Thanks for having a timber yard - its finally come in handy for us - providing the building supplies to make this shop happen
9. Our other family members for being patient whilst we were too busy to talk, have lots of boxes around and supporting us in general
10. Our friends for giving us words of encouragement all the way and then coming in to visit & see our new shop!
11. And instagram for allowing us to share our work in progress with everyone to prove it doesn't happen overnight!
12. Our SuperCool fans who come to shop with us - making this all possible. (otherwise it would just be an art gallery with no-one buying!)

Our new semi-permanent shop at SO:ME space South Melbourne Market
We've been busy little beavers getting our new shop ready at SO:ME Space  in the South Melbourne Market. Building, painting, sourcing, lifting, unpacking, merchandising...... you name it. A small glimpse into renovating a house.... ewwk!  Below are some behind the scene shots of our shop in progress.
We open Friday 29 July and we would love it if you came by and said hi... checked us out and if you're lucky you might win some great prizes! We've got a massive spinning wheel (price is right style!) and if you spend over $50 with us from Friday 29 June to Sunday 1 July you get to take a spin of the wheel which has heaps of great prizes to be won.
General Opening Hours - (same days as the market)Â
Wednesday 8am - 4pm Friday 8am - 5pm Saturday 8am - 4pm Sunday 8am - 4pm
Location -Â SO:ME Space at South Melbourne Markets Enter from the corner of Cecil & York Street (near
claypots) and walk left into SO:ME space.
The empty space before we began building.
After building, the pegboard wall painted "resplendent" yellow.... who comes up with these paint names anyway?
Our manifesto wall designed by the creative crew at Studio Alto.
A view not quite finished - our manifesto wall (see those air bubbles... we weren't happy about that.. so we tore it down and did it again.. see below) The blackboard wall (not quite finished) and then our yellow pegboard wall....
Our lightbox with our awesome logo by Studio Alto lights up for the first time!
Our awesome vintage mechanics workbench is our new counter!
After some serious scrapping of our first attempt at the manifesto wall... we quite liked how it looked when aged....
Some geometic goodness - new stock for our SuperCool shop.
Our new shower curtain/ wall hanging / room divider by Izola... we'll be selling these in the new shop as well.
We've got heaps of vintage sewing bobbins (not many of the French sewing bobbins left in a set of 3) but heaps of new odd sized bobbins as well.
Our best selling doorknobs - displayed to see all the colours and prints available.
Excited to introduce more cool printed and colourful crockery....
We've also got lots of new Cuban and Swedish Cigar boxes - we love the prints and patterns.
Vintage chemistry and apothecary bottles from Japan in heaps of different sizes.
Some typographic and patterned goodness in a corner of the shop.
