I'm a huge fan of pop-up shops—they're always different, have a cool atmosphere and make you feel like you've found some secret gold mine. (You can find tons of my pop-up shop experiences sprinkled throughout my blog, from
Philip Sparks in Toronto to
BaubleBar in NYC )
But what goes into creating these unique retail spots? Well first of all, you have to find a location that is open to renting for short periods of time, which can often be a struggle for aspiring business owners. Thanks to companies like
Storefront, a marketplace for finding short-term retail space, that process can be a little bit easier.
Here's a video for more info:
Storefront held a New York pop-up launch party last week and I was excited to check it out. I mean, they claimed to be having a slo-mo video booth, so really, how could I say no?
Check out some pics from the party held at
Openhouse Bowery:
Moustache straws. Bonus.
Frame from the slo-mo video! Apparently we'll have access to them in a couple weeks. They're actually hilarious...I'm pumped.
This photo kills me, I look like an overly happy child. Seriously. And that's my friend Brian to the right.
Be sure to check out

Facebook &
Twitter.
Thanks for having me!
