Unique Tulsa Shopping is MADE

By Paige Bennett

MADE: An Indie Emporium is a growing Tulsa shop that sells unique handmade items and offers craft classes to people of all ages and interests.

MADE was started as a pop up shop but after a successful start, was moved to a permanent storefront in Downtown Tulsa’s Deco District (on South Boston Avenue) in January 2012. In December of 2012, the shop expanded to another location in the Pearl District of Tulsa (on 6^th street). This second location is within walking distance to the popular coffee shop among TU students and midtown Tulsa residents alike, The Phoenix. This blooming neighborhood offers a unique shopping and dining experience.

The store sells handmade goods from more than 80 vendors. Also, the Pearl District location offers DIY classes for any skill level or age. Currently enrolling classes include a wheel spinning class to make your own yarn and a DIY dream catcher class.

MADE has limited storefront hours but is worth planning a stop in. Hours for the Pearl District location are Wednesday to Saturday from noon to six. Hours at the Downtown location are Thursday to Saturday from noon to six.
