Shopping is a favorite Summer pastime. Unfortunately, mixing the
sweltering city heat with bright colors and tons of passersby can be a
little
less than relaxing. So what's a fashionable girl to do? Boutique Blondie
recommends Metro Market Atlanta!
Located in the old Buckhead Design Building, this indoor
market is a haven
of cool temps, hot fashion finds and farm-fresh foods! Modeled after a
European
street fair, the corridors are lined with artisan works and plenty of
delightful dishes. Whether you're shopping for quirky pottery,
statement-making
accessories or hand-crafted furnishings, the Metro Market has it all.
In addition to fantastic pieces, you can pick up organic and
locally-sourced produce, recipes and gardening products. Care to get
your hands
dirty? Each week, the Market offers numerous demos and classes on
everything
from cupcake baking and DIY herb gardens to how-to yoga and dance.
Classes fill
up and quickly and prices vary, so check the schedule and
register early.
As an added bonus, the Market offers children's activities and
classes. Tots of all ages will love the art, music and cake decorating
classes
as well as Mommy & Me yoga sessions.
The Buckhead Design
Building is located at 2133 Piedmont Rd, Atlanta, GA, 30324.
