Josephine’s mercantile

701 Bay Street | Port Orchard

Josephine’s Mercantile occupies over 8000 sq ft on the Port Orchard waterfront, offering new and vintage items including home decor, gifts, and unique finds. Josephine’s is a South Kitsap favorite for repurposed furniture, vintage décor, locally crafted gifts, and unique items you won't find anywhere else! Their inventory is always changing so check back and wander through often.

Mercantile Coffee Co is a cute-as-they-come cafe in the back of Josephine’s and is the perfect place to grab a latte and freshly baked pastry.

manette garage

1025 Pitt Ave | Bremerton

Manette Garage is the perfect antique/vintage shop for our fave Kitsap neighborhood - the staff is knowledgeable and friendly, the items are eye-catching, storied, and unique and the ambiance is open and spacious. A stone’s throw from Manette favorites like Saboteur Bakery and Boat Shed only sweetens the pot for Manette Garage and makes for a whole afternoon of shopping, sipping, and eating!

Rust & Relic

18825 NE Anderson Pkwy | Poulsbo

Rust & Relic is what you get when you cross interior design with confection perfection! Shop their collection of vintage goods while you sip a coffee nibble on one of their to-die-for truffles. The collection ranges from rustic to cottage, industrial and antique, farmhouse to funky - come ready to be surprised (and for chocolate!). Autumn is the perfect time to stop in for a fall refresh on in-season decor!

Abigail’s artful abode

18830 Front Street NE | Poulsbo

Fun, funky, and fabulous is how we would describe what Abigail’s Artful Abode does best. Abigail’s features an eclectic mix of unique furniture, antiques, collectibles, and home goods from farmhouse to midcentury, and every genre in between. All her life Abigail has been a picker, a hunter, a re-user, restorer, and an enthusiastic lover of old and brittle beauty. There’s never been a garage sale that she hasn’t wanted to put the brakes on for! Stop in to the brick and mortar Thurs-Sun or visit Abigail’s Etsy any time!

red plantation

18833 Front Street NE, Suite B | Poulsbo

Red Plantation is yet another amazing shop in beautiful downtown Poulsbo. They feature over 20 local curators who bring a flair for fun, creative, and unique items that are new, vintage, modern, and local. The curators at Red Plantation are always hunting for vintage and antique pieces as well as furniture that may need a new purpose or maybe just a new coat of paint and bringing the best back to their Poulsbo space for your shopping pleasure. They are open seven days a week and offer weekly Live Facebook shopping events for those who wish to shop from home.

Pro-tip: Red Plantation, Abigail’s Artful Abode and Rust & Relic are all within walking distance. So grab your girlfriends and shop till you drop!
