Huge thanks to who hosted me for their repair fair today. I posted up with some goods and made some patches and even got to share the techniques with some new friends. Fix your clothes and give them some personality while you do it.

Local to Colorado? You may or may not know this but aside from Runner Up I am also a visual artists and this month I am doing a big clean out and want to give folks in my orbit a chance to shop before getting rid of it in other ways.

Sign up for a slot to shop my studio via the link in my bio.

Find craft supplies, decor, art objects made by moi, vintage fabric, yarn, clothes, jewelry etc. all for the low low.

Tell a friend to tell a friend and help me clean this place up.

Howdy y’all. It occurred to me today that I haven’t posted on the grid since February 2024 and I haven’t introduced myself since 2021.

I’m Alexandria and this is Runner Up! Thanks for following along. This shop was a pandemic hobby and it’s been evolving ever since. In recent years I’ve leaned more toward wearables and handmade.

Everything you’ll find in the shop is sourced secondhand or it’s handmade using secondhand materials. My background is in art and I love to make, craft, mend etc. so you’ll see that come through as well. I have a hard time sticking to just one area so this space allows me to dabble and experiment. If you’re ever looking for support on a creative project, someone to lead a class, a specific vintage or secondhand item shoot me a message, I’d love to help.

In the meantime I’m happy you’re here and can’t wait to continue sharing my finds and makes with y’all. Check out my site, sign up for my email list and stay tuned for more. If you like what you see, share it with a friend or drop a line up say hiiiii.
