Experience Pacific Northwest Craft

06/19/2026

Test Patch Studio inside the Tumwater Craft District is full of handmade artwork, cards, gifts, home décor, woodwork, and colorful pieces that somehow make you want to redecorate your entire life.

And the coolest part?
Almost everything in the shop is made by Tiffany herself, while the beautiful wood pieces throughout the store are handmade by her dad.

Which honestly makes this place feel even more special.

Nothing here feels mass-produced or generic.
Every item has creativity, personality, and a real person behind it.

This is exactly why supporting local artists matters.

So next time you’re thinking about ordering another boring gift online… maybe come here instead.

This place is officially ruining grocery store seafood for us. 🌊🦀

Olympia Seafood inside the Tumwater Craft District is the kind of spot that reminds you why shopping local matters.

Fresh seafood, award-winning clam chowder, local shellfish, caviar, house-made dips, and a team that actually knows what they’re talking about when it comes to seafood.

And honestly?
That’s what makes this place different.

You’re not grabbing mystery salmon from a giant grocery chain.
You’re getting high-quality seafood from people who genuinely care about the product, the experience, and the community.

Plus it’s ridiculously easy to stop in and grab dinner, chowder for a rainy Washington night, or a few things that somehow turn into a full seafood haul. 😂

Real people.
Real knowledge.
Real Pacific Northwest seafood.

The Tumwater Craft District Makers Market is full of local artists, makers, small businesses, restaurants, breweries, coffee shops, and storefronts built by REAL people who care deeply about what they create.

Every booth has a story.
Every business has a face behind it.
And every purchase supports someone’s dream instead of a giant warehouse.

So grab a drink, walk the market, meet the makers, and spend your weekend supporting the people who make Thurston County feel special.

Because shopping local just hits different.

Thurston County makers, this one’s for you.

The Second Thursday Makers Market is now looking for vendors, and if you create handmade goods, local products, or something that fits right in with a community market, this is your sign to apply.

We’re looking for local vendors who want to connect with shoppers from Tumwater, Olympia, Lacey, and across Thurston County. It’s a great chance to share what you make, grow your audience, and be part of a market that supports local businesses in a real way.

If you’ve been thinking about joining, now’s the time. Apply through the link in bio.

Tag a maker who needs to see this and share it with someone who should be part of the market.

Turns out buying one succulent is never actually just buying one succulent. 🌿

The Succulent Studio inside the Tumwater Craft District is basically therapy in plant form.

From tiny plants for your desk to statement pieces that somehow convince you to become a plant person overnight… this place is dangerously good.

And honestly?
There’s something really special about walking into a shop where everything feels calm, creative, and intentionally curated.

Whether you already have a full-blown plant obsession or you’re just trying to keep ONE thing alive… The Succulent Studio makes it easy.

Shop local, support small businesses, and leave with at least one plant you definitely didn’t plan on buying.

We’ve all been there.

You came for “one quick drink” and now you’re emotionally invested in 3 conversations, halfway through a second meal, and not leaving anytime soon.

We don’t make the rules 🤝🍻

05/26/2026

We need to talk about your weekend plans… and yes we know it’s only Tuesday 🤝

If they currently involve:
• “seeing how you feel”
• staying in
• doing the same thing as last weekend

We’re gonna need you to reconsider.

There are better options. Good food. Drinks. People. A reason to leave the house.

Just wanted to check in 🍻

Respectfully, what are you doing not eating this right now 🤝🍕

Bastard Pies is out here serving slices that immediately change your plans. You came for a drink, now you’ve got a full meal in hand and zero regrets.

Located right in the Tumwater Craft District, this is your sign to grab a slice, walk around, and fully commit to the experience.

Perfect for:
• Casual hangouts
• Feeding the kids
•The “I wasn’t that hungry” situations
• Pairing with a cold beer from your favorite local brewery

If you’re in Tumwater, Olympia, or anywhere nearby, consider this your official heads up.

You never stood a chance 🤝

We regret to inform you…

you can, in fact, grab ice cream from Sweetlee’s and walk around the Craft District like it’s your full-time job.

No sitting required.
No special occasion needed.

Just a cone, a little sunshine, and suddenly everything feels better.

Consider this your official heads up 🤝🍦
