Unique LA, the marketplace for hand-crafted and locally made items is returning to the California Market Center this weekend for a pre-Valentines Day sale.
The show runs Feb. 11-12 from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
It’s $10 at the door (kids under 12 get in free) and 10 percent of the ticket sales goes to 826LA, a local (of course) nonprofit local that helps kids develop their creative and expository writing skills.

I’m calling it Indie Sunday and Made in USA Monday.
Unique LA returns to the California Market Center for the 4th annual holiday sale on Dec. 3 and 4.
The marketplace for hand-crafted and locally made apparel, accessories, home décor, art, food and more was first launched in 2008 by designer Sonja Rasula.

The people over at Unique Vintage in Burbank have been pretty busy. They just quadrupled the size of their store and are having a special store-opening sale this Thursday (Jan. 20) to celebrate the event.
I recently rented "Breakfast at Tiffany's" to watch again and was amazed by the clothes worn by Audrey Hepburn. I am in love again with the little black dress, and she wore several stylish black dresses. Unique Vintage probably has a few of those looks.

I think I love crafting and D.I.Y. projects because I, unfortunately, was born devoid of any such discernable craft-making skills (unless you count gluing dried macaroni to a paper plate).
So on Sunday, I headed down to the California Market Center to gaze in awe and envy at the many wares from the vendors at the Unique Los Angeles shopping fair, which took place at the CMC’s expansive penthouse space on the 13th floor.
