Revitalizing Seattle Neighborhoods

🌈 Step into Rapozza, a Seattle Restored pop-up bringing colorful, hand-drawn prints and thoughtfully designed kidswear to Pacific Place!

We recently sat down with Brenda, co-owner of @rapozzasquad, whose family-owned brand celebrates imagination, creativity, and the magic of childhood. Brenda designs every print by hand, while her sister Daniela handles strategy and their mom, Mariela, oversees fulfillment and day-to-day operations. The collections are made from Peruvian Pima and Tangüis cotton, cut and sewn in a small, female-led workshop in Peru.

🎨 This fall and winter, Rapozza will host a lineup of family-friendly creative events, including tote weaving and painting, kids’ art-to-embroidery projects, custom patches, and collaborations with local artists. Keep an eye on @rapozzasquad for upcoming events and details!

👉 Read our interview with Brenda at the link in our bio, and stop by Rapozza in @pacific_place to explore the collection.

Deeply committed to sustainability and thoughtful craftsmanship, Butterfly’s Rest prioritizes more environmentally friendly methods and materials while making every effort to use locally grown flowers and minimize waste.

Don’t miss your last opportunity to visit the We Fix Old Stuff and Good Olfactory Candles pop-up shops in Lake City!

Our Lake City pop-ups are coming to a close, but you can still find us in the neighborhood!

Our newest initiative, @ReuseCommons—in partnership with @SeattleREconomy , @Seattle_Public_Utilities, @LakeCityBA—is a one-year pilot designed to assess the feasibility of a shared, community-centered circular economy hub.

We’re grateful to everyone who has welcomed us into the neighborhood since our expansion in early 2025, and we’re excited to share that the Office of Economic Development (@seattleeconomy) is exploring new ways to continue bringing creative, community-focused opportunities to Lake City.

Be sure to stop by @we.fix.old.stuff and @goodolfactorycandles before their activations wrap up this month!
