I Heart Rummage is a monthly showcase of what’s cutting edge in indie crafts and functional art. IHR was created in Seattle by Gia Bahm at Nation/I-Spy in November 2001.  A year later, Sam Trout and Matthew Parker took over and expanded the event.  When Nation/I-Spy closed its doors, IHR moved to its bigger and better home at the Crocodile Café in Belltown.  After 4 years of building IHR into a popular monthly event, Sam and Matthew were ready to focus on new projects. In January of 2006 IHR was restructured, rebranded, and reborn. Now in it's new location at Chop Suey and run by Cassandra Lanning, IHR remains Seattle’s most vibrant ongoing monthly indie craft event.

IHR continues its commitment to provide a platform for all up-and-coming craftsters that want to show new, edgy, and dynamic work.  Every month you’ll find 35 hardworking designers and crafters presenting the latest in style and hip crafts - some seasoned vendors, as well as new work that has never been shown. Relevant local charitable and indie businesses are also spotlighted each month as IHR’s "special guest of the month".
